Employee handbook probably has a clause in "IT Policy" that says 'Employee is responsible for maintaining the security of his/her password' or some similar such nonsense that the Uni will try to hide behind. Typically the only way for employees to opt out of this (when this option is available at all) is to elect to receive a paper check. My employer's system (which comes from a big name edu-prise sw vendor) takes a 6 digit password and my system username is public information (it is not advertised, as a username, but it is visible on public facing documents). Access to this system would allow a person to change my payroll & benefits info, mailing address, and other contact info, change student grades (for the current semester), access confidential student information, and in some cases, add/drop currently enrolled students from courses. The system default password and reset default are also public information. This is a disaster waiting to happen.
