California University of Pennsylvania Changes its Web Address
Effective Aug. 14, 2009, California University of Pennsylvania changed its web address from cup.edu to calu.edu. This means that staff and faculty email addresses became username@calu.edu with the person's last name typically serving as his/her username. For students, email addresses consist of the first three letters of the student's last name followed by a series of four random numbers and the new web address.
The University's website address shifted from www.cup.edu to www.calu.edu.
Please note that cup.edu will run in parallel with the new web address for a short time to allow for a smooth transition, but we encourage you not to use it. Within a few months, all references to cup.edu will go away.
