Feedback report at http://feedback/#/Report/55208773484 -- thanks!

When I look at powerd.PREVIOUS from the report, it indicates that in the previous boot, the system shut down due to an explicit request from Chrome:

Can you file another feedback report with Alt+Shift+i immediately after reproducing the problem and logging back in?

Please file another feedback report immediately after you see the problem as described in #2 and then ping the bug so it can be reopened. Thanks!

How do I "ping" a bug?

Sorry, I meant "comment on the bug to let us know that you've submitted a new feedback report." You just did. :-)

I don't think that the system is shutting down when you close the lid. Rather, it's signing you out, and it looks like this is happening because it's been configured to do that (presumably via enterprise policy, because that's the only way to request this):

Can you confirm that this device is enrolled?

It's owned by a school.

This behavior is configured by the device's administrator. If you'd like it to behave differently, you'll need to ask them to change the policy.

Is there a way to fix it for myself on my end? They probably did that for a reason, so I don't want to mess with the IT person.

Nope, the administrator is the only person who can change this.

Okay! Thank you for your help through all of this.
