Members of the Campus Community,
With Florence having moved out of South Carolina, I hope all members of the campus
community experienced little disruption or will be able to recover quickly.
Winthrop was fortunate not to have experienced significant damage over the last few
days and will resume classes tomorrow, Tuesday, September 18. As it did today, the
university will operate under normal business hours.
We also recognize the terrible harm done by Florence. Our hearts go out to those
dealing with damage and personal crises resulting from the storm. You may live in
an area where you are concerned about travelling or you are addressing personal matters
associated with the storm. We understand you may exercise judgement and caution regarding
attending classes or coming to work. But please understand it is your responsibility
to work with your professors regarding coursework or tests — I'm sure they will be
sensitive to your needs. And staff must coordinate with their supervisors any time
off.
Sincerely,
Dan
