<p class="MsoNormal">Recently, we had an update which affected how you logged into Cascade. Here are several changes we noted: some accounts were successfully updated to sync to AD credentials (This means logging into Cascade with your lastname and your current
computer password), some users lost their group roles, accounts were not able to sync with AD credentials due to name variables or other issues. In addition, Cascade is now behind our firewall. This means you must use VPN to access Cascade if you are off campus.
