Hello Tiger Community,
Due to the anticipated impact of Tropical Storm
Debby, all general campus operations will be suspended on Monday, August 5th,
and Tuesday, August 6th, 2024. Essential emergency personnel, including
Campus Police, Facilities, IT, and others, should follow guidance from their
respective area leaders regarding reporting times and locations.
Wednesday, August 7th, 2024, will be a planned
telework day. If you need any technology equipment from campus, please arrange
to pick it up by tomorrow (8/5) at noon. Team leaders will assist employees
with any related challenges.
All campus events from Monday, August 5th,
through Wednesday, August 7th, including the Faculty/Staff Institute, have been
canceled. Information about rescheduling will be shared at a later date.
An unprecedented amount of rainfall, along with
thunderstorms, high winds, lightning, and potential tornadoes, is forecasted
for the Savannah area from tonight through the next few days. These conditions
may result in flooding, power outages, fallen trees, and debris on roadways and
across campus. We urge you to prioritize your safety and stay updated on the
latest weather information.
