How to Choose a Good Password?

A good password is something which is easy for you to remember, but that people who know you won't easily guess; so don't use your name, or your dog's name, or a word from the dictionary. Passwords must be at least 8 characters long, and contain UPPER- and lower-case letters, numbers, or punctuation. A good password can be:

some initials, like GykoR-66 for Get your kicks on Rte 66.
an easily pronounced nonsense word, like slaRooBey or krang-its
a mis-spelled phrase, like 2HotPeetzas or ItzAGurl
Please Note: It is important that you do not tell ANYONE your password, including your friends, or even people from the Systems Staff. Remember, YOU are responsible for anything done using your password.
