Logan's IT Services department is pleased to provide our new Password Management Utility (PMU), available online at:  http://pmu.logan.edu.

This web page will allow you to easily change your password, which is required once a trimester, and/or reset your password if you ever forget it.

The emails contain instructions and a link to the PMU where you can login and change your password.  Links to the PMU are also located on the main Logan website under the "Quick Links" section as well as on the University blog page.   

Please take a few minutes to visit the PMU and enroll today. By spending a little time now you will make future password changes quicker and easier.

These items are used for identity verification and to reset forgotten passwords. With the Password Management Utility (http://pmu.logan.edu), now you can easily change or reset a forgotten password at your convenience - 24/7/365!   

**Note: Faculty and Staff are welcome to use this utility along with our students.**
