Monday, February 3rd, 2014:

The majority of applications and services across Tufts University have successfully adopted SSO (simplified sign-on). As SSO (Tufts Username / Tufts Password) is the primary authentication method at Tufts University, we are phasing out the visual reminder by no longer including the simplified sign-on logo on Tufts login pages. If you manage a page that uses the simplified sign-on logo, please remove the logo from the page.

New recommendations

Panel

We recommend using the input field labels "Tufts Username" and "Tufts Password" for all SSO-enabled services.

In cases where we cannot change the input field labels, we place on the page the message; "Please use your Tufts Username and Tufts Password to log in".

We are also standardizing the spelling of "Log In" and "Log Out" as 2 words when used as a verb such as on buttons, and "Login" and "Logout" when used as a noun.

You can use the CSS code for the Log In button: Web Standards - Buttons

Below is an example of a standardized, mobile friendly login page:

Listed below are several suggestions for documentation and web pages with SSO-enabled service logins:

Panel
  • Change all instances of password labels ("LAN", "Network", "Trumpeter", "Email", "LDAP", "ED", "AD", "Active Directory", "Webmail", etc.) to Tufts Password.
  • Replace UTLN with Tufts Username (UTLN) and, over time, drop the use of UTLN.
