Follow these instructions to ensure that your Mac will continue to access Geneseo's wireless network (eduroam).
Navigate to the Applications → Utilities folder and open "Keychain Access"
In the left-hand navigation pane, select 'All Items' under 'Category'.
Find the entry for "eduroam" (it's the wireless network you should be connecting to) and delete the entry.
Now turn your wireless connection off and on again. It should now ask for an updated password.
Enter your new Geneseo password and you should now have access to the wireless network again.
