POLICING L.A. FORUM EYES ROLE OF COUNTY SUPERVISORS
When the L.A. County Sheriff says that he is a constitutional officer who answers to nobody except the voters of Los Angeles County, is that accurate? The newest Policing Los Angeles Forum will seek to answer that question during a session to be held from 12-1:30 p.m. on Monday, March 29. The panel will look at oversight options the L.A. County Board of Supervisors could exercise over the L.A. Sheriff’s Department. Moderated by Professor Eric Miller, the panel will include David A. Carrillo, California Constitution Center; Brian Williams, LA. Sheriff Civilian Oversight Commission; and Peter Bibring, ACLU of Southern California. RSVP or learn more>>

STUDENT AUTHENTICATION ENHANCEMENTS AHEAD
In the next five weeks, ITS will be implementing Duo Multi-Factor Authentication, an added layer of security, for all students in phases by class standing - LMU graduate students and all Loyola Law School students; Seniors; Juniors; Sophomores; and First Years.
ITS will send out a more detailed email to each student group with enrollment steps, where to go for assistance, which systems will be protected by Duo, and why. Students will then receive a Duo enrollment email directly from Duo with a unique link to start the enrollment process. Note that although this is an opt-in process for now, you will continue to receive enrollment invitation emails from Duo.
LMU strongly encourages students to take immediate action to enroll in Duo. On Sept. 6, mandatory Duo enrollment will be enforced to access systems such as MyLMU, PROWL, Degree Works, Box, and more.
Get a jump start, secure your account, enroll early. More>>
