We are about to enable the Password Expiration process on our student administration self-service portal. Grades, course registration and financial aid are among the functions that the student can access. As soon as we 'flip the switch', all passwords expire, and the fun begins. My question is two-fold. First, are any of you using a password expiration process in a student self-service environment? We have gone for some time without this, so the password problems we have are the normal 'I forgot' situations. Second, were there any repercussions after password expiration had been enabled? Was it accepted as a standard business practice, or viewed as just another obstacle in the path of the student, faculty and staff? Thank you for your time and response.
