Subject: CEP 956: Course Website & MSU’s New Security Measures

Hi everyone, 
It was great to see you Monday night, and thanks for your patience as I get the course website login issue sorted. It turns out that MSU has stepped up their security measures. 
 
If you are trying to login to the course website from home you must login to the MSU VPN prior to logging into the dashboard for our WordPress site. 
 
Here are details below about why this change from MSU and how to install the MSU VPN on your computer.  If any of this is unclear, the MSU IT service desk can talk you through it.  I found it was quick and easy and they were very helpful:
