Important Notes

IMPORTANT NOTES!

[1] Only Faculty have browsing access to Swank. Students cannot browse. Our contract with Swank states that films are only used for "academic purposes". This means films can only be viewed in class, as homework, or in affiliation with a club or school event. Students cannot watch Swank films for leisure. As a result, Faculty members need to send students a Direct Link to a film. 

[2] It is also important to note that Swank uses Google Authentication. This means once students have a link, they will need to sign into Swank with their Lawrenceville Google information. 

Happy Watching!
