We can't use the Back button because MyWTS operates as a Secure website, in the same fashion as a bank or credit card website, since we dealing with student accounts, monetary transactions, grades, course registrations, and other confidential information. To operate with that level of security means we give up flexibility in site navigation to make sure the correct confidential information is transferred with each page request on the website.
Instead, please use the breadcrumb trail at the top of the left hand column labeled with 'You are here: ', or the navigational tabs, buttons, and links within the site.
