Note: This site has received a recent upgrade. If you were signed up for alerts before October 2011, you will need to reestablish your email alerts.
A log of the Blackboard service?s planned and unplanned downtime is also available by clicking the ?Service History? option on the left side of the screen.
As always, the Bb Team is available to you by emailing {blackboard@towson.edu}.
