On Friday, June 21, the security certificate that secures authentication to 91社区's wpa.mcgill.ca, eduroam, and cusm-muhc.mcgill.ca Wi-Fi networks will be renewed. This certificate allows you to sign on to the Wi-Fi network in a secure manner. 听

New changes to the e-election platform!
We would like to advise you that the decision was made to replace the Omnivox solution with an existing, similar tool called Qualtrics. This will allow IT Services to streamline our solutions and reduce service duplication. In addition to this, the Qualtrics solution will bring enhanced features, improved data security, and a more user-friendly interface, all of which will significantly improve your e-election experience. The Qualtrics solution is now available upon request as of May 13, 2024.
