I was too! I had to ask around, talking to a few professors before I found out who I needed to talk to to get an e-mail account. There were (I think) three terminals on campus I could use to check my e-mail, but only one was in a public location. The others were in physics labs, etc.

I was the only student I knew of with an e-mail account, but I heard from the professors that there were a couple others. This was 1988.
