NOT Recommended

Blackboard does not support every possible web browser version and operating system version configuration.  Generally, safe browsers include Internet Explorer and Firefox for PC and Safari and Firefox for Mac.  Often times, temporary problems can be solved by emptying a web browser’s cached files.  If you encounter problems with a file the instructor is distributing, contact the instructor.  General functionality questions about Blackboard can be referred to Longwood’s User Support Services.
