Posted: Wednesday, March 13, 2019New Campus Service Requires Action by Buffalo State Account Holders
I am happy to announce a new self-service password reset function for Buffalo State account holders who forget their passwords. Until now, if you forgot your Buffalo State password, you would have to call the IT Help Desk. Now you can reset a forgotten password yourself once you register for the new self-service password reset function.
All Buffalo State account holders (students and employees) must register for the self-service password reset. Faculty members should register for this service before leaving campus for the summer.
Please log in and follow the prompts on the website. This IT Knowledge Base article will give you more information and instructions on how to register for this new service.
