Respondus Outage Impacting UIS

Dear Faculty,

We are receiving calls at the help desk from students who are having technical issues with their midterms because of the Respondus outage:

While the latest reports indicate that the situation is improving, I wanted to make sure that you are all aware of the outage in case it is impacting exams your students are taking today, and you want to extend deadlines as needed.

Parking Lot Closures on Tues., March 4 - Lots E, F and J

Please be aware that on Tuesday, March 4, Parking Lot J and a section of Lot F will be closed to campus for parking due to an event being held at the Student Union.

Parking Lot E will also be closed on Tuesday, March 4, so that school children may safely enter the UIS Performing Arts Center for the Staley Class Acts performance The Boy from Troy.

On this date, please make sure to plan accordingly and utilize alternate parking lots authorized by your parking hang tag.

Thank you!
