Early this morning you may have received messages from UIT that said you had a new Cougarnet account and that your password was reset. These messages were sent out in error from an automated system. Please disregard these messages. Your account has not changed and your password is the same as it was yesterday. We believe that we have fixed the problem so you should not be receiving any more of these messages.
