Different Themes and Active Directory (1 post)

    I have added a plugin to WordpressMu that is allowing us to use our Active Directory for people to login. This leads me to a couple questions:

    1) When logging in with your username and password, is it possible for WordpressMu to recognize whether the person is a Student, Faculty, or Staff?

    2)If it can do the above, then according to which group the user belongs to (Student, Faculty, Staff) a different theme would appear for the person once logged in.

    In the big picture, we'd like for Student, Faculty, and Staff to all be using the same WordpressMu, but for each group to have their own slightly different theme. Once the individual logs in, we'd like it to recognize if that person is a Student, Faculty, or Staff member and then load the appropriate theme. I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm welcome to all ideas and help! Thanks!
