Smith recently announced that student, faculty and staff will need to use Duo Two-factor Authentication (2FA) to log into Bannerweb, Moodle, Smith’s Gmail, Smith’s Portal and all other websites that require Smith credentials.
This season, the UMass men’s hockey team has taken UMass athletics and the college hockey world by storm with their phenomenal opening half of the season. As of Mon., Dec. 10, their record stands at an impressive 13-2, and they’re ranked second behind St. Cloud State in Minnesota.
