**Test of online housing lottery system experiences errors**
Residence Life assigned time slots to students who had signed up to test drive the new online housing lottery Monday, but errors prevented students from seeing their assigned registration time slots.
Residence Life sent four e-mails to all testers over a two-hour period.
p. The first e-mail announced that there were errors; a second said that they had been corrected, and a third said that IT was still working on correcting errors.
p. “This is a test instance of myWM and not the real thing, so the smallest thing not being set up correctly can [throw] things off,” a final e-mail said.
