Hurricane Preparedness

The hurricane season begins June 1 and ends November 30.

The college's Emergency Operations Team keeps the college up to date on developing and approaching storms on the Hurricane Preparedness web page, as well as the college's web page. Information on the current campus emergency level, closings and re-openings, department emergency plans, employee recall information, and links to the National Weather Service's National Hurricane Center, the National Oceanic, and Atmospheric Administration are also listed.

Announcements and updates prior to, during, and after a storm will be sent to all faculty, staff members and students from the Emergency Operations Team. Inclement weather information will also be posted on the college's web page. Return-to-campus notification will be posted on the college web page, sent via email, by text notification, (to students and employees registered in the Emergency Notification System), and through the local media outlets.
