Changes coming July 20 to Canvas discussions and announcements

On July 20, all Canvas courses will begin using a new, redesigned version of the “Discussions” and “Announcements” features. For the past several semesters, using the redesigned versions of Discussions and Announcements in Canvas has been an option but not mandatory. As of July 20, it will become mandatory.

New students must enroll in Duo-MFA by July 1

This new deadline (previously, students had to enroll by the 2nd week of the fall semester) will help ensure student NetIDs and email accounts are more secure during the vulnerable period as they learn about campus life and the university’s digital services.
