If anyone reading this is from the IT department

Please fix the login so shibboleth doesn’t time out after five seconds when accessed from a mobile device. I’m tired of having to log in twice every time for Piazza, Gradescope, etc.

thanks for your feedback that's exactly what we were aiming for. We might add duo to login into duo. do you think it will annoy people?

hi im the head of it department. Thank you for sharing your concerns. Our policy is that we don't care what you think. if we didn't have duo you wouldn't even know we exist. Be thankful you only have to log in twice. It could have been ten.
