New: Enhanced Zoom Whiteboards

Zoom has significantly overhauled the Whiteboards to enhance functionality. Anyone with a BMC Zoom account can now create, share, and post to whiteboards before, during and after meetings, and participants can add text, images, shapes, and virtual sticky notes in addition to handwriting/drawing on screen. Want to learn more? Zoom is hosting on-demand and live training opportunities throughout the summer.

Emergency Listserv Server Maintenance, 2pm TODAY July 13

UPDATE, 2:20pm: The server has been restarted and listservs are available again. Thank you for your patience while we completed this necessary work.

Starting at 2pm today, July 13th, LITS will need to restart the server that controls our campus listservs (Mailman). While this work is performed, community members will not be able to email campus listservs or log in to Mailman. We expect the outage to last approximately 30 minutes.
