Brightspace is getting a New Look!
Good news! Our Learning Management System is getting a brand new look! Starting in February , 2018 you’ll notice a new look and feel for Brightspace. A cleaner interface, new fonts, and updated icons mean that your courses will look more polished and modern than ever. Your workflow won't change but look if the vLe will be updated and clean. You will no longer be able to change your background theme. However, you can continue to customize your nav bars and widgets.
