Faculty and staff on main campus leave are asked to turn off their computers and
printers when they leave campus today, June 20. The Physical Plant also recommends
turning off any other electronic devices such as fans or air conditioners.
All campus computing services will shut down at midnight tonight, June 20, and will
not be back up until midnight Saturday, June 21.
Weekend College classes that regularly meet on Saturdays in the Education Building
on the main campus will meet in Bryant Place. ENGL 1109 and MATH 93 will meet in Bryant
Place, Room 604. Speech will meet in Bryant Place, Room 608.
"We anticipate that the Falcon Center will reopen for its regular hours beginning
