GoWMU Timing out

As a result of the upgrade to the GoWMU services over the weekend, some users might experience problems staying logged in to the portal. If you are automatically logged out after appearing to have had a successful login, please clear your cookies from your browser. Due to the number of supported browsers and the instructions clearing cookies being different for each, if you do not know how to accomplish this task, contact the Help Desk at 269-387-HELP. Also, it is recommended that user's bookmarks or favorites be changed to [url=http://gowmu.wmich.edu]http://gowmu.wmich.edu[/url] if they are pointing to some other GoWMU page. By using the main link, there is a series of redirects that perform session cleanup and browser checks.
