Our private message boards are down temporarily. We had a major problem last night. It wasn't anything malicious, but it was caused by an outside source who made a very simple mistake. It's going to take a major effort for our own technical staff to clean up after that company's error and cleanup is underway. We regret the inconvenience and will get the boards up as soon as possible.

We also have no e-mail at the moment. Working on it.

We're making progress.

Some of you have asked by phone what to do about your assignments. We know you can't send them at right now, so we'll post here and on Facebook AND on our instructional message boards as soon as they are back up.

By the way, anyone is welcome on the Facebook page, whether you are an Andrews student/graduate or not. It's open to everyone.

E-mail is back.

Instructional message boards are on the way back. Fortunately we have backups and won't lose as much as we would have otherwise.

I have forgotten my password, so even though the Main Board over there appears to be up, {shrug} I can't get in, and I don't want to disturb Steve or Glenda while they are working on it.

It's okay for people to post here. I see that lots of people are reading but nobody is talking. I am beginning to feel like I am talking to myself. Oh well!

I talk to myself a lot. I am my own best friend.

Sorry you are having trouble on the message boards. I wondered what was going on when I tried to check it this morning.

I'm glad to know that the boards are being worked on, and that there is a place like MT Chat where you can announce what's going on!

Thank you folks for talking back to me. I was feeling so alone.

EDITED TO SAY THAT I SPOKE TOO QUICKLY. THE MAIN BOARD ISN'T BACK YET AND NEITHER ARE THE OTHERS. I'LL REPORT BACK WHEN I HAVE MORE INFORMATION. WE DO HAVE E-MAIL.

The Main Board is back and we didn't lose too much from there. The Transcription and Coding Boards are loading. There is so much on those that it's going to take more time.

We have backups, but just not for the changes we made last week.

Speaking of changes, by the way, you'll be the first to know. We have always had 3 modules. Soon we're going to break it up into 4 modules. Isn't THAT going to be fun. It's going to be confusing during the transition. That probably won't happen until June though, so keep it a secret.

I get a blank page when going to the main board. Is it just me?

I'm getting a blank page on the Main Board as well.
