Cable TV service to the B&E building is currently unavailable.

The cable line from Breezeline servicing the B&E building was accidentally cut by contractors during the extensive renovations currently taking place in several areas of the B&E building. TSD has been in touch with Breezeline and we're working with them to schedule the repair. Due to the extent of renovations, however, it's possible the repair may have to wait until they are completed.

We will update you as soon as we have additional information.

ISSUES ACCESSING MICROSOFT OFFICE 365 WEB APPS:

We're part of a larger issue with some of Microsoft's 365 infrastructure this morning resulting in some or all of us being unable to access most of Office 365 from the web. So, if you usually sign into office.com to access Outlook, Word, Excel, Teams, or other web-based Office apps, you may not currently be able to do that.

Microsoft is working on this as a larger issue affecting many of their customers and we're waiting to receive more information on the issue.

In the meantime, you can access the most popular apps through the links we're providing below:

Outlook: https://outlook.com/usca.edu
Teams: https://teams.microsoft.com/
Word: https://www.office.com/launch/word
Excel: https://www.office.com/launch/excel
PowerPoint: https://www.office.com/launch/powerpoint

Please share these with your fellow students and coworkers who may not have access to their email.

We will update with additional information as it becomes available
