Browser Error Message Alert

Some users may receive a "subject must be a string" error message while using a Chrome browser. The portal company is investigating the cause and we hope it's resolved very soon.

What is the MySWC Portal?

The MySWC Portal is your gateway to all things Southwestern. It brings together many different SWC resources, sites, and applications - all in one place. And, depending on who you are, the information displayed could be different - but the experience remains consistent! For example, all students and faculty will see dedicated Canvas spaces where current classes can be accessed, but most staff will not see them. The MySWC Portal will only show you content that relates to you, saving you time as you find the resources you need.
