GroupWise
GroupWise is the official e-mail system

websites in order to become more familiar with GroupWise:
One45
One45 is a web-based evaluation system that

containing a login and a password along with instructions on how
to log into One45. Students will be encouraged to log into the
system and anonymously complete final course evaluations.

www.mcg.edu site. See
Welcome to MyMCG
for more information about the portal
purpose, privacy, development, and news. For assistance, please

Secure Exam
Securexam® Browser is a security application
that locks down any web-based tool or platform, transforming
school specific applications into secure testing vehicles.
Securexam® Browser creates a secure test environment by locking

desktop computer, only allowing access to the test application
via our secure Internet browser. Secure Exam will be made
