FYI...
EGSC Update from President Schecter:
The Swainsboro campus will move to all remote work except for essential employees for Tuesday, January 21 and Wednesday, January 22. This means all faculty should move their classes to an online format for these two days and all staff should be working regular hours and be available to their colleagues and students during those two days.
As always in emergency management situations, Statesboro and Augusta locations will follow guidance issued by those respective schools (Georgia Southern & Augusta University).
Students, if you are away from campus today, we urge you to stay put and not travel to campus until conditions improve late Wednesday. Those students already on campus, we encourage you to return home, if you are able. If you are enroute to campus, there will be access to the dorms and dining services through Tuesday and Wednesday, but no guests will be allowed in the dorms over those two days. Any student traveling should ensure they have a full tank of gas before hitting the road, as access to fuel could be jeopardized this week, as we saw with the September hurricane. All students should look for communications from their faculty on how their classes will be handled and attend virtually to keep up with the work assignments.
Please note that road conditions can be hazardous. Keep your electronics fully charged in case of power outages, and let’s show each other grace and care as we get through this latest storm together.
Thank you,
David Schecter
