Email Accounts and Quotas


Student & Employee Email Accounts & Quotas
Email accounts are created for Kenyon faculty, staff and students when they are first employed or enrolled at Kenyon. Special student accounts and affiliated scholar accounts are created upon request and can be extended by the Registrar's office. Kenyon Google Mail and Google Drive have unlimited storage.

Requests for a student organization or special project email account are made in person with the Office of Student Engagement. Those requests are then sent by Student Engagement directly to LBIS Information Technology (IT) to process. Students will be notified by IT when the account has been created.

When You Leave Kenyon
Graduates can keep their email accounts as long as they log in regularly through the Gmail web interface every month. Checking the account only via the Gmail mobile application only will not keep the account active. These accounts do not require a Kenyon network login to access their Kenyon Google Mail. 

You can now download a .zip archive of all your Kenyon Gmail messages. 

Employees who leave Kenyon automatically will have their email account extended for 90 days after ending employment. 

Size limit on Email Messages
There is a 25 MB size limit on email messages in Gmail. Anything larger will not be sent. This limit applies to the whole message, so a message with a single attachement larger than 25 MB can't be sent; also, a message with multiple attachments that are together larger than 25 MB can't be sent.
