Facilities Update
As we prepare for the holidays and many go out of town for vacation, please leave buildings locked and lights shut off to conserve energy. If there are any facilities emergencies during the holiday shut down time, please contact either Keith Kane (December 15–25) or Randy Switzer (December 15–Jan 1). Anything that is not urgent should wait until after January 1, if possible.
2019 Password Change | IT 
We would like to inform you that we will be requiring a password change for all users on Tuesday, January 1, 2019. This password change affects your network login and your Gmail login. When you login on January 2, you will see a screen instructing you in how to change your password.

Both systems require a password with a minimum of eight characters. We encourage you to set the same password on both Gmail and the network so that you can easily remember them. Thank you for helping us keep things secure!
