With the Spring semester underway, Information Technology Services would like to provide a few reminders. Some good news – there won’t be any major changes – so you can take a breadth. We will not be changing your email platform.
As always, please feel free to contact IT if you have any concerns.
Information Technology Reminders and Updates
1. Multifactor Authentication (MFA) is required for all logins. You will need to download the Microsoft Authenticator app, which will generate a code that will allow you to authenticate into your device. For more information, please visit the Resources and Guides tab.
2. Wireless connectivity to the CSI network continues to be addressed. Technology Services is still deploying additional access points contingent on electrical and budgetary resources.
