On Tuesday, Nov. 8, MyGeorgeFox will start using login.georgefox.edu, the university’s Single Sign On (SSO) system, for authentication.
This will bring MyGeorgeFox into the familiar login process used by other George Fox applications (e.g. Canvas, Zoom, Gmail). It also means if you are already logged in through SSO, you will be automatically logged in to MyGeorgeFox.
Please note that it also changes what happens when you logout of MyGeorgeFox. When you logout of MyGeorgeFox (or when your session times out) you will be shown a screen that provides two options for logging out and an explanation of each.
Please contact the Service Desk at servicedesk@georgefox.edu if you have questions.
