Logging Into The App<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are faculty, a staff member, or a student with a profile on a site maintained by the College of Letters & Science (L&S), you can manage your own profile. Instructions for how to manage your website are shown below, and you may also watch the tutorial video<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Go to L&S Sites and People Application<\/a>, and log into the application by clicking on the yellow Login button. Use your UWM credentials to login if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"L&S<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Once logged in, you will see the dashboard. If you have a profile in the system, you’ll see a box titled “Your Profile” with buttons for “View” and “Edit.” Click Edit to update your profile.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"L&S<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. At any point while you are editing you click “save,” then at the top of the profile, you will see a blue box that displays a caching process for a few seconds. Do not navigate away from the page until that process is complete.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. When you return to your profile page on the department’s website, you may notice that changes you made have not yet updated. If that is the case, open your full profile page (not just the thumbnail view), refresh the browser window once or twice to force the changes. Alternatively, you can leave you profile alone, and it will update automatically within four hours.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Directory Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Most of the information in your profile is editable; however your email, phone number, and office number are pulled from the UWM Directory<\/a> managed by Human Resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        If your name, email, building, room number, <\/strong>(highlighted in red in the screenshot below) have changed<\/strong>, please use the following links to request those changes to the directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
