Eduroam
The Eduroam wireless service allows Faculty, Staff and enrolled Students to use their Pomona login credentials not only on the Claremont campuses but at other academic institutions that are also offering the Eduroam wireless service on their campus.
Eduroam had its beginnings in Europe. So, the vast majority of European colleges and universities participate in this service, in addition to many in North America as well as other countries. To find out where the Eduroam service is available, please visit: eduroam.org .
When visiting a campus with Eduroam, select the Eduroam wireless network and enter your Pomona College username and password.
- Students: username@mymail.pomona.edu
- Faculty and Staff: username@pomona.edu
Likewise, guests at Pomona College who are from another school participating in Eduroam can also use Eduroam wireless here using their login credentials from their home campus.
Eduroam is ideal for mobile phones and tablets, which frequently travel beyond Pomona's borders. Also, Pomona students, faculty and staff can take advantage of Eduroam when visiting the other Claremont Colleges or in the Libraries (Eduroam should be used instead of the Claremont wireless network).
