UMass Dartmouth will be closed Tuesday, October 30, effective at 12:01 a.m. due to the expected impacts of Hurricane Sandy on the region. All Tuesday classes at all UMass Dartmouth sites are cancelled.
Residential students who are on campus now are encouraged to remain on campus to avoid unsafe driving conditions. Students who are at home now are encouraged to stay home.
The University is fully prepared to provide food and other services to students remaining on campus. In traveling to the Marketplace for meals, students should consider that peak winds from the storm are expected between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m.
Due to the threat of power outages that could interrupt University web and email communications, all students, staff and faculty are urged to update their UMassD Alert accounts. This will assure that they receive critical messages if campus power is lost.
University officials will continue to closely monitor the storm and provide updates regarding the campus status through www.umassd.edu and campus email.
Any students, faculty or staff facing a campus emergency should contact the Department of Public Safety at X9191 from a campus phone or 508.999.9191 from an off-campus or cell phone.
