Before you dive into autumn semester, be sure to learn about the latest updates to teaching and learning tools and other technology services from the Office of Technology and Digital Innovation (OTDI). Learn more about our new proctoring tool, Honorlock; review changes and improvements to CarmenCanvas; check out new features in Mediasite; find out how you and your students can access Adobe Express and Creative Cloud; and so much more.

It’s the final countdown! Remaining buildings that still have osuwireless in place will say goodbye beginning July 14 through July 24.

The remaining schedule for osuwireless retirement is:

The time has come to say goodbye to osuwireless. On Sunday, May 5 and Wednesday, May 8, both at 10 p.m., osuwireless will be removed from select locations on Ohio State campuses in Columbus and Mansfield. The legacy Wi-Fi will be removed by building throughout the summer, targeting completion by August 2024. Visit wireless.osu.edu if you have not yet connected to eduroam. 

The Office of Technology and Digital Innovation (OTDI) has been hard at work between autumn and spring semesters to update our tools and services. This round of continual improvement projects included added security measures for eLearning tools, improved synchronization of identity data, and a focus on accessibility awareness. You and your students should also be aware of upcoming changes to Wi-Fi at Ohio State and potential issues with email forwarding.

As OTDI continues to streamline and enhance IT services at the university, we are working to improve the university Wi-Fi experience over the next couple of years by moving to the eduroam network and device-based authentication. We will simultaneously phase out osuwireless, with a targeted retirement date of Summer 2024.
