The university is currently operating under a normal business schedule.

We are anticipating severe weather this evening, including the possibility of tornadoes and hail, with the worst impacts expected in New Orleans at around 7 p.m. Out of an abundance of caution, we are making the following changes to our operations: Non-Law classes will go virtual beginning at 4:45 p.m. Law classes that begin at 4:30 p.m. or later will be virtual. Faculty who need to make other arrangements to leave campus sooner are advised to do so, and are asked to be flexible with any students who need to do the same. The Monroe Library will be open until 6 p.m.

Dear Loyola Community, It feels like such a sign of the times that our moment of joy here at Loyola came at a moment of fear and destruction for the New Orleans region. For anyone impacted by the tornadoes last night, students, faculty and staff, please let us know so we can rally and help. In the meantime, the rest of us are praying hard for you. Blessings and prayers, Tania Tetlow President

We're expecting continued periods of heavy rain across the area today and tomorrow due to Tropical Storm Nicholas. This could result in street flooding and possible power outages. Since we are already in a "flexible mode" we urge you to watch the weather carefully and feel free to work from home if you feel you may have to deal with these issues.

For on-campus residents, we are preparing to reopen the residence halls beginning September 13. With virtual learning taking place that week, this gives you the opportunity to move back as suits your schedule. We are asking all students to be back in time for in-person instruction on September 20, but otherwise you can be flexible. This flexibility is especially useful for off-campus residents. If you can wait until at least Sept. 13 to return, please consider doing so.
