Dissolution
of IULFC The Indiana
University Faculty Council met on Friday, August
24, 2012. At the meeting, the Council
approved the following resolution:
Resolution: Moira Marsh moved to dissolve
and adjourn IULFC one final time, with the
exception of the IULFC P&T Committee which
will dissolve at the conclusion of its business at
the end of the academic year.
The motion was seconded by Scott Opasik and
unanimously approved.
The Council, with the temporary exception
of the Promotion and Tenure Committee, is now dissolved.
The report of the IULFC Transition Team
will guide the dissolution and provide a framework
for calling together the librarians of all
campuses when the need arises. The
Transition Team report may be found at
http://tinyurl.com/Transition-Team-Report.
The report was discussed and approved in a
straw poll at Librarians' Day 2012. The
White Professional Development Award and
Librarians' Day Committee will be restructured
and continue as outlined in the report.
Questions may be directed to the chair of
the Transition Team, Erika Dowell,

Thank you to everyone who has served in the
IULFC. We look forward to working together
in new ways in the future.

Passphrase
Expiration Notice IU will
phase in expirations for any passphrase that is
more than two years old, beginning on Monday,
September 10. Detailed information on this
process can be found in the Knowledge Base (KB) at
http://uits.iu.edu/page/bbtp. This
process will apply to all students, faculty, and
staff at IU's eight campuses. Users will
begin getting warnings, months in advance of the
expiration date. Users who don't change
their passphrases by this date will immediately
lose access to CAS-supported resources such as
Oncourse, OneStart, ePTO, OTP authentication and
PeopleSoft. Affected users will regain
access after completing the passphrase reset,
using the Self-Service Passphrase Reset tool (
https://passphrase.iu.edu).
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?
Old passwords
and passphrases can jeopardize the security of
personal and university data. Passphrase
expirations help protect this data against hacking
and misuse.
HOW WILL THIS BE ENFORCED?
Passphrase
expiration will only be enforced via CAS, IU's
Central Authentication System. Network IDs
will not be locked or disable. This means you will
still be able to log in to non-CAS services such
as workstations, email, and VPN.

EXPIRATION?
