I have a Microsoft account through my college, and my job recently switched over to have us sign in through a microsoft backed account. Now, on safari, I cannot access them both without clearing cookies every single time. This is a large issue, as I use both frequently. I do not understand why I cannot link them. Is there any way around this?? It's extremely frustrating to be unable to sign in to two important accounts.

    You can create multiple user accounts on your Mac, each with different 365 settings. Using System Setting>Users & Groups, create a second user account on your Mac. Set up one account for your university sign-in and the other for your work setup. You can switch accounts without rebooting from the right end of the macOS menu bar.

    When you open PowerPoint - use the presentation Gallery (check box in prefs)
    you'll see your avatar + Name top left
    Click on that then click on Connected Services +
    add your other account via adding a Storage Account (Personal or Business/School account)
