Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.

Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction: Academic Research Initiative Dept. Homeland Security
The ARI Program has two primary objectives. Engage the academic community to advance fundamental knowledge for chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear sciences applicable to Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) with emphasis on fundamental research to solve long-term, high-risk challenges. And to develop human capital for the CBRN science and engineering professions. Furthermore, the program works to sustain a long-term commitment to basic research in these fields and coordinates research efforts across the federal government.
