Airport shuttle service available ahead of spring break

A shuttle with service to Cleveland Hopkins International Airport from the Case Western Reserve University campus will operate March 6–8 for students traveling for spring break. The shuttle will pick students up from two stops: the Greenlink stop near the Juniper residence halls and at the Nursing stop across from Fribley Commons.

The shuttle will operate on the following schedule:

• Friday, March 6: 2 p.m., 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. 
• Saturday, March 7: 5 a.m., 7 a.m., 9 a.m., 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m. and 5 p.m.
• Sunday, March 8: 5 a.m., 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. 

Pickup at the Juniper stop will be on the hour, with the Fribley Commons stop pickup at 15 minutes past the hour.

To schedule a ride, call or text 216.368.6604. Rides must be scheduled 48 hours in advance. Dispatch is available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.

When scheduling a ride, provide the following information:

• Name
• Cell phone number
• Day of flight
• Pickup location
• Pickup time

Students also should share any additional information that might be pertinent, such as need for wheelchair access, amount of luggage if over two bags, etc.

A confirmation text will be sent prior to your pick-up date with your scheduled pick-up time (based on availability).

Allow an hour and 15 minutes for pickup and travel. 

The shuttle will follow a strict schedule; riders should be prompt.

For more information, visit the Parking Services website. 

Login Management Updates

In early March 2026, University Technology ([U]Tech) will release upgraded login management tools—such as passphrase reset/change, passphrase verify and account activation—which will enhance the security and ease of accessing pages that allow members of the Case Western Reserve University community to manage their passphrases and network IDs.

In this update, all login management tools will be moved under the https://login.case.edu/manage URL. Users can confirm the authenticity of the pages on which they are entering their ID and passphrase by verifying that the navigation bar URL begins with “https://login.case.edu/manage”.

Updated log in management page

[U]Tech also will unveil a new look to the pages that is similar to the SSO login page. Users will have several options for verifying their identity for passphrase resets, such as:

• Using the CWRU DUO service;
• Sending an authorization code to a registered mobile device as an SMS text message or to an registered off campus email address; and
• Completing a passphrase question and answer pair.
