Monday, February 22, 2021: UPDATE 7:45 AM
Campus is back to normal operations today and all in-person and online classes will resume as normal. Students and staff who are still be having difficulties at home with power, water, or internet service should contact their faculty or supervisor respectively to discuss options.
The facilities staff has made several passes through campus buildings and addressed the most critical problems but it is quite likely that there may be residual maintenance issues needing their attention. Your patience is appreciated as they work through them.
