Blackboard unavailable from off-campus. Use VPN.

Blackboard is currently unavailable from off-campus. To use Bb from off campus, please install and connect through the Virtual Private Network (VPN), and then try again.

What is VPN?

VPN is a set of software and hardware that enables your computer to transparently connect to a remote network as if you were physically attached to that network. Communication between your computer and the remote VPN hardware is secure (encrypted). VPN is useful for accessing resources (library’s databases, electronic journals, etc.) that are normally restricted to campus use. Learn more about how to use VPN.
