The issue affecting random users to access Blackboard has been resolved. If you continue having problems, we would suggest clearing your web browser cache and doing a DNS flush. Please contact our COLTT Help Desk at (956) 882-6792 or (956) 665-5327 for assistance.

While we are confident that the DNS issue has been resolved, we understand that some users may still experience problems. This is because the DNS server propagation process may not have been completed for those connected to certain Internet Service Providers (ISPs). However, please be assured that this issue will resolve itself over time as the Time to Live (TTL) on the ISP DNS servers expires, and the servers update accordingly.
