As you likely noticed, a global Microsoft service disruption affected Outlook email and other Microsoft platforms on Thursday.
Although Microsoft continues to work toward a full resolution, the incident is a useful reminder that the university’s IT status page is the best place to find timely information during a technology disruption.
We also encourage faculty to work with students who may be affected by the outage and to offer reasonable flexibility, including extensions where appropriate.
For current information about the status of UML systems and services, visit the UML IT status page. To receive notifications directly, select “Subscribe to Updates” on the status page and follow the prompts to enter your contact information.
We encourage faculty, staff and students to subscribe so they can receive updates during future service disruptions, including when email or other Microsoft services may be unavailable.
