Challenge Questions and Alternate Email Address
All members of the Queen's community (students, faculty, staff) who have an active NetID have the option of creating Challenge Questions so if you forget your password you can re-set it yourself. If you provide an Alternate Email Address, all password change notifications will be sent to that address (as well as your Queen's address) so you will be able to receive the change information even if you can't access your Queen's email.
