Depending on how LON-CAPA is authenticating you, you may be able to
change your password. 

To change your password, do the following:

\begin{enumerate}

\item Either select \textbf{Preferences} from the dropdown list displayed          
when you mouseover your name at the top left of the screen or            
click \textbf{Main Menu} on the Inline Menu and
then select \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{pref} \textbf{Set user preferences}
in the \textbf{My Space} group
\item At the \textbf{Set User Preferences} screen, select  
\includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{emblem-readonly}
\textbf{Password}. 
\item Type your current password in the \textbf{current password} text box.
\item Type your new password in the \textbf{new password} text box.
\item Re-type your new password in the \textbf{confirm password} box.
\item Click the \fbox{Save} button.

\end{enumerate}

If you cannot change your password, please use the Help link at the top right of the page
and then click ``Ask Helpdesk'' to submit a help request to ask for instructions.
University users often authenticate against the campus-wide
system. For those users, changing the password used by LON-CAPA means changing the
user's campus-wide password. Your helpdesk will be able to tell you how to go about that.
