NOTE: You will need this bigfoot email address and password to sign into the CCS Net wifi Download CCS Net wifi on our campuses, and to log in to your personal user account on computers on campus in our labs. Some labs have a general user account, so you will not need to sign in on those machines.
First, we will set up your Student "Bigfoot" email. This is going to be your student email account on Office 365.

Example: John Smith with the ctcLink ID of 123456789
The email address will be johns6789@bigfoot.spokane.edu
**Students with two first or last names will sometimes have different email addresses that don't match this pattern. If this is the case, IT Support Center can be called and they can look up the student's information. (509) 533-4357 [533-HELP] **

- On the page that comes up next, you will need to enter the password for your Bigfoot email. The password is your Student ID (ctcLink ID). You can change your password later if you choose.
Note: this will also be the login information you can use to log in to computers on campus.
Click Sign in
You will be asked to add some extra sign-in info to help recover your account if you forget your password. You will need to do at least one of the three options. The simplest for most students is to enter your cellphone number and confirm the request by entering the code that is texted to you.
