MSU's Usenet Service (nntp.msu.edu and news.msu.edu) has provided access to Usenet newsgroups through a news server (when used with a Usenet news reader such as Outlook, Agent, MT-Newswatcher, etc.) for many years. Web forums and other Network News Transfer Protocols (NNTP) have grown in popularity, however, reducing the number of people using news.msu.edu. Due to declining use, news.msu.edu will be removed from service on October 31, 2007. Members of the MSU community who use Usenet may want to pursue one of the readily available news browser services to read articles and post discussions previously done on news.msu.edu.
