Web addresses

• http://www.uwaterloo.ca (UW Web home page)
• University officers and administrators
• Individual users: The University of Waterloo does not have a central index of individual users' home pages, because there are several tens of thousands of users spread over several thousand computing systems. It may be possible to determine the URL for the home page, if the individual has one, based on the electronic mail address. E-mail addresses are listed in UWdir, which is accessible from the UW home page. If an e-mail address is of the form username@machine.uwaterloo.ca the home page, if it exists, will probably be found at http://machine.uwaterloo.ca/~username. Two faculties maintain their own listings of individual home page addresses: arts and mathematics.
