Effective immediately Franciscan University's domain name has changed to www.franciscan.edu
Tuesday, November 12, 2002
Please note the following:
1) Both www.franciscan.edu and www.franciscan.edu will bring you to the University's homepage until March 3.

2) E-mails addressed to username@franciscan.edu or to username@franciscan.edu will be delivered until March 3; after that date, only e-mails addressed to username@franciscan.edu will work.

3) Download the E-mail Handbook for instructions on how to change settings on your computer to handle the domain name change.

Quick Info: What is a domain name?
Every computer on the Internet has a unique address - just like a telephone number - which is a rather complicated string of numbers. It is called its "IP address" (IP stands for "Internet Protocol"). IP Addresses are hard to remember. The DNS makes using the Internet easier by allowing a familiar string of letters (the "domain name") to be used instead of the arcane IP address. So instead of typing 147.72.102.10, you can type www.franciscan.edu.
