http://www.hsc.edu

is working fine but it seems your browser is enforcing https (that is making you go to the https site if it exists).

It's possible you can disable the force of https in your browser for that site or try another browser if you have one (my Firefox for example allows me to go to the http://www.hsc.edu site ).

Do email them about the https://www.hsc.edu problem though, they should fix that.

That's standard practice (redirecting people to the secure https site) these days. n/t PoliticAverse Sep 2021 #7

But the https site is the one that's blocking me. nt eppur_se_muova Sep 2021 #9
