Subject: [SECURITY] Password change *recommended* -- RESULTS?

Hello Everyone – I was looking to get an idea as to how successful a recommended password change broadcast is (to the 
entire school population)? Perhaps a percentage, such as -- last time we sent a broadcast out recommended a password 
change, with instructions on how to change your password, less than 1% of passwords were actually changed?

Thanks!
