While this is something most of us do multiple times a day nearly every day of the week and should be a simple matter of entering a username and password, unfortunately, what we&#8217;ve observed and heard from many of our instructors are reports of continual challenges with this process on shared computers in our classrooms and computer labs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The root cause of this issue is straightforward, but it is also a human issue and therefore not simple to solve without thoughtful and deliberate consideration of the best solution (not just the easiest one). Simply put, some people are simply not logging out of their user session and either walk away or are simply &#8220;locking&#8221; the computer (instead of logging off). This behavior is what initiates the on-going challenge for other people who need to use a shared computer in a classroom. The simplest and most immediate solution to this is to simply restart of the computer for the next instructor to logon and begin using the computer to start teaching their class. Since Fall 2024, we&#8217;ve received quite a bit of feedback regarding this particular challenge and we&#8217;ve come up with a solution to address both issues at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beginning on Tuesday, July 1st, 2025 all classroom computers supported by the Instructional Computing Services team that require a username and password to login will be configured to implement a new automatic logoff policy.
