Alisha's first screenshot XXX shows how to fill out the account creation screen, with a link to that screen in the text above XXX (...Touchstone account creation...). Once you've created the account, you will be sent an email telling XXX you how to activate the account. After the account is activated, go to the Track & Field and Cross XXX Country Wiki page at https://wikis.mit.edu/confluence/display/mtfxcalumni/Welcome and log onto the XXX account as shown in the second and third screenshots on Alisha's help page.
