Subject: 1/31 Telnet "Just the Facts" discontinued

On Jan. 31, 2003, the telnet version of Just the Facts will be discontinued.

This service was a way for students to view their grades, course schedule, addresses, and other information stored in Just the Facts using a telnet client. It has been replaced with a web-based version that has the same functionality – see http://jtf.cornell.edu .

The web-based version, like the telnet version, is intended to let students review their Just the Facts information in situations where they cannot use Bear Access. To modify any information shown in Just the Facts, or to use CoursEnroll, students still need to launch Just the Facts via Bear Access.

For more information about Just the Facts, see http://www.sws.cornell.edu/OUR/student/jtf.html

If you have questions or concerns about this change, please let us know at univreg@cornell.edu

Thank you.
