[BB] Blackboard help desk hours of operation

Dear Blackboard users,

 

The blackboard help desk is temporarily moving back its hours of operation to Monday to Friday 9 am to 9 pm.

 

We will still monitor issues during the week end and respond in case of an emergency.

 

Jose Baez, our help desk technician, has decided to leave us in order to pursue a new calling with another company. We are saddened to see him leave.

 

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and we thank you for your understanding.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

Rick Ramos

Help Desk Supervisor
