Although the situation in Del Norte county is fluid, and keeping in mind that this could all change rapidly, we have decided that, for now, the Del Norte campus... will remain open and classes will continue. There will be limited staff onsite but students will be able to access the computer labs, use the internet, and ask general questions. If you are or know any students who have been displaced by the wild fires and need shelter, we have 14 vacant dorm rooms on the Eureka campus where we can house students. We also have food and additional sleeping cots if the need is greater. Students, faculty or staff can reach out to [email protected] or 760 -525-3155 for more information. This pressure is added to an already stressful and unusual semester and we want everyone to know that the health and safety of our campus communities is our top priority. Stay safe and reach out if you need help.
