Bb Users,
Blackboard has been restored. I will post details explaining what happened on the Blackboard home page under announcements when they provide that information.
The Blackboard World annual conference is next week, and they will have to face all the schools they brought down this morning (who are no happier than we are about the service interruption).
Thank you for your patience, and I apologize for the trouble.
-Jennifer

Bb Users,
This is just an update. Both of our Blackboard servers are up, but our load balancer is still down. That means that you can access Blackboard, but NOT via its URL.
If you need Blackboard before this problem is completely resolved, use one of these URLs:
Many schools are already completely up and running. I will let you know as soon as we are.

Subject: [BB] Blackboard Down
Bb Users,
Blackboard is currently down for us and hundreds of other schools. Blackboard is working to solve the problem, and I am told they are rolling back changes they made early this morning.
Unfortunately that process could take up to 2 hours to restore service to all clients.
I apologize for this, and I will provide more information as soon as I have it.
-Jennifer
