Moodle will be upgraded starting on June 17th at 5:30am. The server will be unavailable during this 1-2 hour outage.

ITS will be turning off all Moodle Archive server instances that were used during Academic Years 2006-07 through 2012-13. The Moodle Archive for academic year 2013-14 will be retained for one more year, and all Moodle courses taught from 2014-15 to present will remain on our primary Moodle server at https://moodle.carleton.edu until they are 5 years old.  Read more for details on when and how this is happening, and how to retain your course information.
