We have explicitly stayed away from conditional access policies for MFA to create less confusion and given the 
complexities of maintaining them in our environment.

We exempt MFA for Office365 from on campus.  Other systems with sensitive category data require MFA from everywhere.  
Many academic focused systems do not have MFA at all (yet anyway).

We are hoping to look into creating more granular, flexible MFA rules using Conditional Access in the near future as we 
revisit things for our longer term remote work plans.

Subject: [External] [SECURITY] MFA in classrooms

All, I am wondering how others have addressed access by faculty in classrooms to resources that require MFA:

Do you require MFA in classrooms?

If you do not, how do you address this area?

Thank you.
