Announcements

On Monday, June 1st, ITS will disable the “remember me” feature that is currently available for selection when acknowledging MFA challenges when accessing campus wide systems and services.
The “remember me” feature in Office 365 introduces persistent authentication sessions that reduce the frequency of MFA challenges. While convenient, this behavior increases risk by allowing compromised session tokens or unattended devices to bypass MFA for extended periods.
While this will result in increased MFA challenges, this change strengthens the college’s information security posture and addresses the increased threat of phishing-based credential compromises.
Disabling this feature ensures a more consistent enforcement of multi-factor authentication, reduces exposure from long-lived sessions, and supports a zero-trust approach to access control.

If you are pursuing a remote or in-person internship or research experience this summer, you can register with the Summer Academic Internship Program (INP). Through INP, you'll enhance your internship/research by engaging in a personalized, reflective experience designed to support your goals and the experience will be recognized on your official academic transcript through earing 0.25 credit (non-billable/non-fee). All active, matriculated students with an internship are invited to register through the Forms section of Gateway (INP/REXP Icon). Students should submit an enrollment request prior to starting the experience and before the initial deadline of June 1. Please contact intern@dickinson.edu if you need more time to make internship arrangements. International students studying on an F-1 visa: According to F-1 visa regulations, if you plan to pursue an internship/research experience with an organization other than Dickinson College - whether remote or in-person, whether paid or unpaid - you must register with the INP and obtain CPT work authorization approval before you can start the experience.

CPT is required in every circumstance if you are located within the U.S. CPT is required if you are located outside of the U.S. but working for a U.S.-based company. CPT is not required if you are located outside of the U.S. and working for a non U.S.-based company.
