Course evaluation system outage begins Aug. 25

Explorance Blue will be temporarily unavailable from midnight on Monday, Aug. 25, through 11:59 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 29, while a vendor-driven upgrade is completed.

Access to all course evaluations and reports within Explorance Blue will be restored by the vendor on Saturday, Aug. 30.

Once the upgrade is complete, Explorance Blue will feature a redesigned homepage interface. Instructors are encouraged to review this new Explorance Blue guide to become familiar with the new home page layout.

All core services within Explorance Blue will remain unchanged after the upgrade, including:

  • Access to existing reports
  • Data and responses for existing reports
  • Functionality for DIG, course evaluations, and reports
  • Scheduling and procedures for course evaluations

This upgrade is scheduled outside of active course evaluation periods to minimize disruption to WSU faculty, staff, and students.

For any questions, please contact Crimson Service Desk at crimsonservicedesk@wsu.edu or 509-335-4357.
