• Reminder: Bb 8.0 Upgrade
  The Blackboard servers will go down at 12:15 am on Tuesday, May 6 (immediately after spring semester grades are due) so that UKIT can perform the upgrade; servers should be back up by 8 am on May 6. All Bb Instructors are strongly urged to download the gradebook in their courses as a precautionary backup before the servers go down. "How do I download my gradebook?". The main change in this move to Bb v8.0 is that the Gradebook will become the Grade Center, with an entirely new layout. Learn more about the new Grade Center on the Grade Center Resources page.
• Office 2008 for Mac Now Available for Faculty/Staff
  

  Office 2008 for Mac is now available to regular full-time and regular part-time Faculty and Staff of the University of Kentucky. It is available for download through the UK Download server.

  The student version of Office 2008 for Mac is not available at this time, but will be released on the Student Download Server when the product is available. Students should note that they are only allowed one copy of the currently released Office Product. Students that download Office 2007 for Windows will not be eligible for Office 2008 for the Mac, and vice versa.

• Unfortunately Automatic Course ListServs will not be available until further notice. Faculty wishing to create a ListServ for their course will need to request a new ListServ be created at New List Request. The Faculty member will then need to add students to the ListServ, or have their students join the ListServ, prior to posting to the list. For more information on creating and managing ListServs please visit ListServ.
