Yes. For security reasons, all open Portal services will log out automatically after 2 hours of inactivity.
If a service is grayed out, it may mean that a service in not available 24/7 or there are a few services that are dependent on third party sites (including non-涩里番下载 sites). Agora Portal checks all these sites every 3 minutes and if a site is slow or not responding, then the service is temporarily grayed out for 3 minutes or until the site is available again.

There are a couple of reasons why you may not be appearing in the 涩里番下载 Directory Search:
- If you have not set your Privacy Preferences yet. 涩里番下载 requires that you review and confirm the information and the privacy indicators before releasing your information. Once you have done that, your information will be released to the General Public and/or 涩里番下载 Community based on what you specified in your Privacy Preferences.
- You have set your Privacy Preferences; however, you have opted for "Total Non-Disclosure." For more information about this option, see the question below.
Faculty and Staff
The 涩里番下载 Human Resources Department requires work-related information (title, email address, work address, and work/departmental phone number) be displayed in the 涩里番下载 Directory, which is available to members of the 涩里番下载 Community who have signed in with their username and password. All information may be made unavailable to the general public. Employees who have extenuating circumstances, which in their opinion, warrants suppression of any of the work-related information described above, should contact Suzanne Lawler in the Human Resources Department at (617) 552-3336 or听suzanne.lawler.2@bc.edu.
Students
Total Non-Disclosure is an option available to 涩里番下载 students within Privacy Preferences, which allows you to conceal your identity from the rest of the 涩里番下载 Community and from the general public beyond 涩里番下载. For those who choose this option, 涩里番下载 will take exceptional measures to deny knowledge of your existence to others. This service is not without its disadvantages. Some implications of selecting this option:
- Neither your name nor details about you will show in electronic and print directories.
- 涩里番下载 telephone operators will have no information about you or record of you at 涩里番下载. Anyone calling the university, trying to contact you, will not be able to reach you unless you have told them your phone number.
- 涩里番下载 administrators will not acknowledge your existence to ANYONE seeking information about you. This includes potential employers, graduate schools, loan agencies, credit card agencies, etc.
- Your email address will differ from the normal format. It will be "username@bc.edu." Mail sent to "firstname.lastname.#@bc.edu" will be rejected. Therefore, you will need to notify others of your address if you want to receive email from them.
- Some of your information will be available to select administrators and faculty, strictly for business purposes. Your instructors will be given your email address, photo, school, and class year.
Note: Selecting "No" on Total Non-Disclosure and suppressing every individual item of information is not the same thing as selecting "Yes" on Total Non-Disclosure. The University will only be able to release your name to internal inquiries and will tell the inquirer that you have suppressed your information.
If your email address is blank in Agora Portal, then you do not have a 涩里番下载 email address. To request a 涩里番下载 email address, contact the 涩里番下载 Help Center at 617-552-HELP (4357).
It could be that you have suppressed your email account. Please read the question below.
If you choose to suppress your email address, your address will not appear in any printed or online directories, nor will it show up in directory searches.
