Sounds like either a DNS / IIS / or a little of both issue. God I hate 
tracking this stuff down - so good luck to you...

A couple of things to look out for (This is just my opinion, I could  be 
wrong...) -

1) Host headers/IIS = bad... well at least for non-internal stuff, and 
I've heard all sorts a mess with them and SSL. I never liked them 
personally. If you're pointing it to the outside world, make sure you 
have A records for art.* and pt.*

Dunno if you've read this junk, but may be a good reference for ya:

2) Looks like you got seperate SSLs for art.* and pt.* - I find that 
rather odd, how come you don't have a wildcard SSL for *.evansville.edu?

3) Check how the SSL Identities are managed vs. the IP addresses. Are 
art.* and pt.* seperate IPs, or are the host headers? Seems like IIS  is 
catching all 443 port traffic and spitting the user out to cce.*

Cheers, good luck, and feel free to ignore everything above (as I'm 
pretty confident I suck at alot of DNS troubleshooting *grin* )
