UVI Technology Update

Office of the CIO

October 16, 2008

Greetings Colleagues,

This is a technology update for October 16, 2008. In the wake of Hurricane Omar the University of the Virgin Islands will be open for business tomorrow, October 17, 2008. All employees on the St. Thomas campus are expected to report to work for their normal work hours. Essential employess on the St. Croix campus must report to work for normal business hours. Nonessential employees on the St. Croix campus report tomorrow at noon.

The libraries on both campuses will remain closed tomorrow to the public but will resume regular business hours starting Saturday October 18, 2008.

Information and Technology Services has been working hard for most of the day to recommence technology services on both campuses. However, the St. Croix campus telecommunication and inter-island communication system (microwave) has sustained damage and is not fully operational. ITS will commence repair work tomorrow.

UVI will use the emergency hot line number to post campus updates:
St. Thomas 693-1016
St. Croix 692-4168
