Lees-McRae runs Brightspace behind a Microsoft 365 login
From lmc.edu/students you open Brightspace, which lives at leesmcrae.brightspace.com/d2l/login. Because the tenant is D2L-hosted, that page hands straight off to Microsoft: /d2l/login redirects through SAML to login.microsoftonline.com, where you sign in with your Microsoft 365 (lmc.edu) account. Your username is your first initial, last initial, and zero-padded student ID at lmc.edu — for example, jd012345678@lmc.edu.

Connect the student portal once
Sign in through lmc.edu/students to Brightspace with your Microsoft 365 account, including the one-time Microsoft MFA prompt. Silent Student reuses that session.
It syncs every course
Silent Student reads your Brightspace courses and builds one queue, ordered by due date across all of them — residential or 8-week online.
Drafts wait for you
Essays, discussion posts and file uploads stop in Draft Review. You read, edit, and approve before a single word posts.
It runs in the background
Quizzes and auto-graded work go through on their own while you do something else; you check the log whenever you want.
Lees-McRae FAQ
Brightspace hands off to Microsoft Entra ID, so you log in with your lmc.edu Microsoft 365 account — the same one used for email and the Montibus registration system. If your account is set up for multi-factor authentication, you approve the standard Microsoft prompt (most likely Microsoft Authenticator) yourself once; after that Silent Student keeps the session.
Anything graded inside Brightspace — intro courses like RHE 101 Rhetoric and Composition I, PSY 133 General Psychology, BIO 114 Introduction to Biology I, BUS 101 Introduction to Business, and COM 101 Speech and Oral Communication are all good fits.
No. Lees-McRae runs a residential semester calendar and accelerated 8-week online terms, but every course lives in the same Brightspace tenant, so Silent Student treats them all the same and just orders the combined queue by due date.
Open each course in Brightspace. Lees-McRae runs its coursework inside Brightspace rather than on publisher platforms, so in most cases there is nothing external to check — if a section does add a publisher tool, it appears as a link in the course content.
