Blitz Migrations Draw to a Close

We moved over 16,600 accounts to the new Blitz and have only 1,200 more to go. All Blitz migrations will be completed by August 31, 2012.

Blitz Training Continues

Even though we've nearly completed our Blitz transition, we continue to offer training sessions on the new system. We have several learning options.

Secure Your Online Account Before October 31

Before Wednesday, October 31 you must take steps to secure your Dartmouth accounts with a new, strong password, and answer four security questions. These requirements are part of our initiative to better protect your personal information. Act soon: if you don't take these steps, you'll lose access to any Dartmouth application that requires login, including Dartmouth email, VPN, and any web-based applications.

Have you tried Lync?

Everyone at Dartmouth has access to Lync. With Lync, you can go beyond email to connect with Dartmouth students, faculty, and staff. Use instant message, computer-to-computer audio, video chat, desktop sharing, and more. Watch this video for an overview.

Oracle Calendar Shutdown

All Oracle Calendar migrations have been completed, and the Oracle Calendar system will be taken offline on July 25, 2012.
