There will be a 15-30 minute time span that WINGS will be unavailable between 6:30am and 7:30am tomorrow. If you have any questions, please call the CaTS Help Desk at (937) 775-4827 or email helpdesk@wright.edu.
The next time you change your password, you will only have one password for both your campus (w012abc) and Office 365 (last.#@wright.edu or first.last@wright.edu) accounts. This change will reduce your number of Wright State passwords from three to two.
