SIRS – system outage, Dec 2, 2024 [updated]

The “Blue” site that hosts the Student Instructional Rating Survey is experiencing a major outage this morning, December 2nd as of approximately 9:00 am. We are in contact with the vendor and hope to have the system back up as quickly as possible.

Students who are attempting to complete their surveys should try again later today.

Update: 3:22 pm

System recovery is underway. Blue is available, but access may be intermittent or slow at times. Integration of the surveys with Canvas has been disabled until the system becomes fully stable.

At this time, students can complete the survey going to https://sirs.rutgers.edu/blue. The survey links in Canvas will be restored at a later date.

Update: 6:30 pm

Blue operation has been restored and is fully functional. Integration with Canvas will be turned back on in the morning.
