Sam BallardThere will be a scheduled maintenance outage for CSC-Online-Sakai on Monday, March 7, 2016, the first day of Mid-Term Break. Faculty and students should plan accordingly.

The learning management system (LMS) will be offline for the day so that it can be upgraded. Two changes will be made during the maintenance window. First, CSC will be moved to the community release of Sakai; second, Sakai will be updated to version 10.5. These changes are integral to improved performance and will be completed in one, comprehensive upgrade. Read Full Post
