<p>do we have to wait until april</p>
<p>July, actually</p>
<p>do we get to pick it or they pick it for us?</p>
<p>they pick it for you: [initials][arabic numerals of quantity of students already with those initials at cornell + 1]@cornell.edu</p>
<p>for example i'm <a href="mailto:ams347@cornell.edu">ams347@cornell.edu</a></p>
<p>if you don't have a middle initial you'll get two letters. if you get something objectionable, like kkk24 or fag397, they are willing to change it.</p>
<p>LOL @ Sparticus's post...</p>
<p>those are frequent questions regarding the emails, so I decided to preemptorily answer them. :D</p>
<p>is it always 3 letters (aaa) and numbers (111)?</p>
<p>no, your initials, and then the number of people with those intials plus 1</p>
<p>Example:
Your Name: John George Doe
Initials: jgd
Number of people with jgd = 22
your email: jgd23</p>
<p>Your Name: John Doe
Initials: jd
number of people with jd = 235
your email: jd236</p>
<p>See, i got one of the questions even after I answered it.</p>
<p>You can also, if you are the only person with your name in cornell's history of giving out emails, you can be emailed at <a href="mailto:firstname.lastname@cornell.edu">firstname.lastname@cornell.edu</a> or <a href="mailto:firstinitial.lastname@cornell.edu">firstinitial.lastname@cornell.edu</a></p>
