EECS Recovering from Campus Power Failure
After the [campus-wide power failure](http://www.dailycal.org/2013/09/30/campus-wide-power-outage-disrupts-classes-early-monday-evening/) of 9/30, most IT services in EECS have been restored. IRIS-managed networks (wired and wireless), email, mailing lists, file service and web services have all recovered.
At this time (9:35am) power has just been restored to 165 Cory and staff are bringing equipment back up. If you manage equipment in 165 Cory, this would be a good time to check on it.
At this time we do not have any information on whether any EECS classes might be canceled. We will post updates to this article as more information becomes available.
