Authentication.
After selecting an online item from the instructor’s list, you will be
prompted for your PH ALIAS and PH PASSWORD.
Why? Fair use of copyrighted
materials means that we must limit access to course reserves to University of
Tennessee affiliates.
· YOUR PH ALIAS is a unique string of characters—usually a combination of your first initial and last name.
1. Example: Melba Venearo would be mvenearo (which is pretty unique) but James Brown and Joe Brown would both be jbrown. If there is more than one, then numbers are added to make it unique (jbrown3, jbrown24 etc).
2. If you have no idea of what your ph alias is you can find out easily by doing a search on the UTK web-based directory, http://www.utk.edu/ph.

· YOUR PH PASSWORD is a string of numbers & letters, which allow you to access your record.
1. The default password will consist of: (1) the first two letters of the month you were born in lower case, (2) the last two digits of the year you were born, and (3) the last four digits of your UT ID number. For example the birthday of September 6, 1974 and the UT ID # of 123-45-6789 will give a password of se746789.
