System Updates Notification—Sunday, November 15 and 22

Good morning!

We recently learned of a product security patch that causes an issue with authentication to certain systems.  We were able to pull the patch to avoid a service disruption, but we need to update the affected systems so that we can move forward with applying updates to stay current on published security patches.

We will be patching our storage platform, over the next two weekends to resolve this technical issue.

Update on Network Outage

Good morning,

Thank you for your patience during the internet disruption yesterday.  I am happy to inform you that the IT equipment that was damaged due to Sunday night’s power failure has been replaced and internet service was restored late yesterday.  Classes and activities that depend on wired internet connections can resume as normal this morning.

If you encounter any continuing issues, please contact the Help Desk.

Thanks go out to Matthew Hoban and the entire IT team who pitched in to get this issue resolved so quickly.

We want to understand which AI-related issues matter most to students. What we learn will help shape AI-related programming at MCAD, such as panel discussions, visiting artist talks, and guest lectures, and will help us review and develop MCAD’s AI policies and guidelines. The survey results will be shared with MCAD faculty and staff, the Student Experience Committee of the Board, and the Student Union.
