We recognize that individuals may be experiencing varying circumstances or impacts related to Tropical Storm Bertha. Faculty and staff with questions or concerns about their individual circumstances or ability to return to campus should contact their manager or supervisor directly. Faculty are encouraged to provide flexibility to students who may experience travel difficulties. 

The University will continue to monitor conditions and share any additional updates with the Loyola community as needed.

Be Prepared

Emergency situations are never convenient, so it is critical that our community be prepared for the unknown. Being able to respond and activate either a departmental or individual emergency plan is not an easy feat. By reviewing plans and engaging our community more frequently, we can create a culture of preparedness and actually become more resilient together. We strongly encourage everyone to become familiar with their own plans, be it an individual plan, family plan, or department plan, in order to be more resilient once an emergency strikes.
