ITS to continue February network upgrade in selected academic buildings
Information Technology Services began an upgrade to MSU's entire network last November and will continue with the upgrade through 2021.
As part of this upgrade, ITS will visit individual academic and administrative buildings on the Starkville campus to install new network equipment.听
Careful consideration has been taken on scheduling building upgrade dates to minimize the impact on听academic classes and administrative work.听听

Please be aware of the following on the day a building is scheduled to be听upgraded as the听building will be without network connectivity all day.听听
- Employees should consider teleworking on the day of the upgrade, given there听will be no network access.听听
- Instructors should be prepared to deliver course material from another听location if network access is required.听听
- ITS-supported lecterns will not be functional during the day of the scheduled upgrade.
