[BB] Blackboard moved to new login page.

Dear Blackboard Users

 

The University of Miami's Information Technology (UMIT) continues to work diligently to streamline your online experiences. In November 2018, UMIT enabled a new login page for all Office 365 applications and services, including UM email.  Today, March 9, 2020, Blackboard was migrated to the new login page as well. 

 

There is nothing you need to do, and no Blackboard features will change.  This change is simply to move Blackboard to the new Login screen that will eventually be used for all University of Miami Single Sign-On applications and services.
