Campus Alert: President Robert S. Nelsen has sent the following message to the Sacramento State community about the campus closure: We have made the difficult d...ecision to keep campus closed through the Thanksgiving holiday. We had hoped to reopen on Monday, Nov. 19, but with the forecast showing ongoing unhealthy air quality, we believe that it is in the best interest of Hornet Family to continue to encourage people to stay home and to stay indoors. A very limited number of personnel will be asked to perform essential functions such as payroll, police services, transcript distribution, etc. Please do not report to campus unless a manager specifically contacts you and asks you to report to campus. As previously announced, classes will resume on Monday, Nov. 26. Environmental Health and Safety will continue to monitor the air quality both indoors and outdoors. For staff: As noted, some essential functions of the University will need to occur this week so that, for example, people will get paid on time and so that students can register and apply to graduate schools. Necessary personnel will be notified by their managers if they need to report to work during the closure. Please be reminded that Friday, Nov. 23, is not a campus holiday. By then, the smoke from the Camp Fire is expected to have dissipated. For those of you who are planning not to take a vacation day or personal leave on Nov. 23 and, instead, to come to work, please notify your manager no later than 5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 19. For faculty: There will be no classes nor any assignments due until Monday, Nov. 26. Faculty may not assign work or require students to submit assignments during the suspension. We encourage faculty to use this time to adjust their coursework and prepare for the final two weeks of class. For students: There will be no classes or assignments due or assigned until Monday, Nov. 26. Contact your faculty if you have questions about specific coursework. Students employed on campus should not report to work. Students scheduled to work the week of Nov. 19-Nov. 21 will be paid for their missed shifts. The residence halls and the Courtyard Market will be open. Student Health and Counseling Services will be available for patients with urgent medical or mental health needs between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Monday and Tuesday. Pharmacy services also will be available during these hours. Please call Student Health and Counseling Services with any questions or concerns at (916) 278-6461. More information about the availability of student services (registration, financial aid, transcripts, etc.) will be forthcoming from the Division of Student Affairs later today. The AIRC and the University Library will be open again on Saturday, Nov. 24. The recent fires have been some of the most devastating in our state's history. Communities have been destroyed, and countless people in California are suffering greatly. In this time of thanksgiving, I hope that the Hornet Family will come together to support the affected communities. As an Anchor University, let’s find ways to reach out and help contribute to their recovery. I wish you a safe and enjoyable break, and I look forward to seeing everyone back on campus on Monday, Nov. 26.
