I have "bash" as the last line in /etc/profile. This seems to work, but I do have to enter "exit" twice to

"echo $SHELL" still shows "/bin/sh", not "/bin/bash".
The shell that loads when you log in is chosen by your profile.
Not sure how this is done in USS but someone administratively could
simply change your login shell to /bin/bash.
In the meantime, just create a profile in your home directory .profile
that does exec /bin/bash
