An issue with TCU's domain name system Tuesday night caused the second outage this month for the university's e-mail server, a Technology Resources administrator wrote in an e-mail.

Bryan Lucas, executive director of Technology Resources, wrote that the DNS issue arose because of the flooding of the university's server room in Sid W. Richardson Building on Feb. 4, which caused the initial outage in e-mail and wireless internet.

The e-mail servers were down from approximately 8:30 p.m. until 12:10 a.m. Wednesday, he wrote.

After attending 30 different mosques across the country during Ramadan, Aman Ali and Bassam Tariq will share their experiences at TCU today during their "30 Mosques, 30 Days" speaking series.

The presentation will include anecdotes, photos and videos from the trip not documented on the website.

Students can step into a new culture and move their feet to the beat of African- and Caribbean-style dances Wednesday in University Recreation Center.

Chasity Shorts, a junior sociology major, said the dance class was also a way to incorporate a social event to promote Black History Month.

The first week of February offered a bonus break to students when the university was forced to close for four weekdays due to snow and ice.

Although students enjoyed the time off from class, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Don Mills said the storm created many difficulties for administration.
