Don't pull your hair out. The ICC Web is down, Blackboard access available from main campus

Don't pull you hair out. It's not your computer. Apparently a cable was cut in downtown Peoria and the result is that ICC is cut off from the WWW until it's fixed. I am told you can access Blackboard from the main campus.

I can't speak for other faculty but I will extend the next discussion deadline for this week in my courses for the total time period of the outage, which hopefully won't be more than a few more hours.

I will update here with the total time of the outage once the repairs are complete.

In the interim, thanks for your patience. The only thing any of us can do under the circumstances is checking back periodically to determine if we are back "online".

UPDATE: We are back online. Downtime was about 4 hours. I'll be extending up discussion due date/time for tomorrow (6/17/09) to Noon.
