[BB] Internet Explorer 9 problem with UM Blackboard system

Blackboard users,

Based on our current testing, it appears that Internet Explorer 9 cannot be used to login to Blackboard. We are working on this problem. In the meantime, you might try a different browser such as Firefox, Chrome, or Safari.

We will update you tomorrow on the status of this issue.
