The administration canceled all classes Wednesday, Feb. 27.

Strong winds and heavy rainfall cut power to several buildings, flooded facilities, and at least one person was hopsitalized.

According to Paul Sherwin, dean of humanities, these safety concerns warranted closing the campus. The vice president of academic affairs, John Gemello, informed Sherwin of the decision shortly before 11 a.m. Gemello's office only confirmed the cancellations but could not give a detailed explanation, as the office was fielding many calls and concerns about the weather.
