Beginning July 1, campus Wi-Fi users will see two new options in their devices’ list of available networks as the AurariaNet Wi-Fi project expands across most buildings and facilities.
Building on the success of the Arts Building pilot project, the campuswide effort to offer more streamlined, cost-effective and consistent wireless access will allow Wi-Fi users to move between buildings and classrooms without being disconnected.
Users will be able to access the AurariaNet and AurariaNetGuest networks beginning July 1 in the following buildings:
- Administration
- Arts (already live)
- Bear Creek
- Boulder Creek
- Central Classroom
- Cherry Creek
- City Heights
- Clear Creek
- Confluence
- Jordan Student Success
- King Center
- Mods
- North Classroom
- Plaza
- Rec Center
- Science
- St. Cajetan’s
- Student Commons
- Wellness
The Tivoli Student Union and West Classroom Building will transition to the new networks in August.
Project details and benefits
