Hello everyone,
The department was able to get guest access to the WIMBA session that will happen next week. If you are an on-campus student who wishes to attend the online WIMBA session for the comp-exam info session please read these instructions shared with us by the WIMBA support team.
REMINDER: there is no login information, just select "guest"
I have booked the requested session for 4/4 at 7pm ET.
I set your Wimba room to have a guest link to access it which I created a TinyURL link for here:

Students would need to access the room from the Comp Exam course shell or the above link and pick the first/top option to just give a Guest name and not a username and password. Archives will have to be opened to guests after created if needed access as well.
They can access the room from BB Vista via these instructions and need to have the latest version of Java via Java.com or Software Updates and to test this out prior to the session. Firefox will need Java forced to run with the attached fix regardless on both Macs and PCs and Macs cannot run Java on Google Chrome with Lion and Mountain Lion (10.7 and up). More information is here:

If you guest needs to call in to be heard or cannot access the room due to technical problem, they can call (571) 392-7604 and use PIN56607802 to connect via phone.
Additionally, here is the phone and pin number for the guest to call in if needed listed above. If they control their audio from the phone, he or she will want to mute the computer sound since it will cause feedback. Also, on the phone you can mute with *6 and unmute with *6.
