UPDATE: Coleman Library/Campus Facilities Reopen

October 8th, 2018 Veronique George News
UPDATE: Coleman Library/Campus Facilities Reopen

October 12, 2018 – 1:30 p.m. 

FAMU officials are communicating with city and state emergency responders, who are providing daily Hurricane Michael restoration updates. The City of Tallahassee’s goal is to restore power to 90 percent of its customers by the end of the weekend. For additional information about city operations and services and to report a power outage, visit talgov.com. For information about Talquin’s services, visit talquinelectric.com. 

FAMU President Larry Robinson, Ph.D., would like to thank students, faculty, staff, alumni and partners who supported the University during the “worst storm that ever hit our region.” The main campus and satellite campuses did not lose power during Hurricane Michael. Classes are scheduled to resume Monday, October 15, at the main campus, FAMU Developmental Research School and satellite sites, including Crestview. Watch FAMUInfo, FAMUNews.com, the FAMU mobile app, iStrike and FAMU’s official social media channels for updates.

Please watch this video for a firsthand look at the state of FAMU’s campus and President Robinson’s message. 

Campus Buildings Open This Weekend 

As a special accommodation to our students, Coleman Library will be open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. today, Friday, October 12, and Saturday and Sunday from 1-6 p.m. 

We realize that many students living off campus are returning to Tallahassee and may not have power in their homes. Today, Tookes Recreation Center, located at 2101 Wahnish Way, will be open 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. for students who would like to use the showers. University employees are on site, and showers will also be available Saturday and Sunday. However, the fitness center will remain closed until Monday, when the campus plans to resume normal hours of operation.  

The main dining hall in the Student Service Center is open 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Continuous service (with limited options) will continue from 2-5 p.m., and dinner will be served 5-7 p.m. 

The Efferson Student Union and Activities will open its Multipurpose Rooms for students to use as study lounges and to charge electronic devices, such as laptops and mobile phones. The hours are noon – 9 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  

The University’s shuttle service is available 11 a.m. – 8 p.m. today, Friday and Sunday and will pick up and drop off students every 30 minutes on the hour and half hour. 

Please continue to be careful as you venture outside. Be mindful of downed trees and power lines. Monitor road conditions and limit driving at night. The City of Tallahassee reports most of the city’s traffic lights are operating normally, but some rural areas and counties do not have power and street lights. 

Call FAMU Public Safety and Security at 850-599-3256 to report any issues on campus that need immediate attention.

October 11, 2018 – 7 p.m. 

Today, FAMU President Larry Robinson, Ph.D., spoke with students while surveying the main campus with the University’s emergency responders, a day after Hurricane Michael made landfall on Mexico Beach.  

For a firsthand look at the state of the campus, please watch this video, and hear the story of a student who sought shelter on campus during the storm.  

While the campus did not lose power, please call FAMU Public Safety and Security at 850-599-3256 to report any issues on campus that need immediate attention. 

We realize that many students living off campus are among the tens of thousands of people in the Tallahassee area who lost power. 

Starting Friday, October 12, Tookes Recreation Center, located at 2101 Wannish Way, will be open 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. for students who would like to use the showers. The showers will also be available Saturday and Sunday. The fitness center will remain closed until Monday as well as other campus facilities with the exception of the main campus dining hall in the Student Service Center. 

Brunch will be served 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Continuous service (with limited options) will continue from 2-5 p.m., and dinner will be served 5-7 p.m. 

The Efferson Student Union and Activities will open its Multipurpose Rooms for students to use as study lounges, starting tomorrow, from noon – 9 p.m. The study lounges will be open through Sunday during the designated times. 

Classes will resume Monday, October 15, at the main campus, FAMU Developmental Research School and satellite sites, including Crestview. 

October 11, 2018 – 3 p.m.

Dear FAMU Family: 

Classes will resume Monday, October 15, on Florida A&M University’s main campus and all satellite campuses, including the Crestview site.  

I am pleased to report that the campuses have full power. The University’s emergency responders are assessing the property and buildings on campus. So far, there are downed trees and fences, debris and minor property damage.   

About half of our students who live in residence halls left before the storm, and about 1,200 stayed in their rooms. The main dining hall resumed brunch service this morning and will also be open for dinner 5-7 p.m. There will be continuous service from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m. until Sunday. All campus dining facilities will resume normal hours of operation Monday. 

The University’s shuttle service is available 11 a.m. – 8 p.m. and will pick up and drop off students every 30 minutes on the hour and half hour. 

Boxed meals, snacks and water were provided to students and visitors who spent Tuesday and Wednesday in the shelters in the Band Rehearsal Hall and Tookes Recreation Center, which have been closed. 

The Florida National Guard and first responders are using the Al Lawson Jr. Multipurpose Center for a staging area. They will be dispatched to areas affected by Hurricane Michael and assist with restoring power, security and other logistics. 

Please know that our University Emergency Response Team holds conference calls twice daily and will continue to post updates on FAMU’s official social media channels, FAMUInfo, FAMUNews.com, FAMU mobile app and iStrike. Students, please share these updates with your parents and family and friends. If you need additional information, please call FAMU’s Public Safety and Security Office at 850-599-3256. 

I would like to extend special thanks to everyone who worked continuously to serve our campus community and provide excellent support before, during and after the storm. Please keep those affected by the hurricane in your thoughts and prayers and help them as much as you can. While the storm has passed, please adhere to safety instructions provided by emergency authorities and government agencies. For those traveling to Tallahassee, please check local and state road conditions and monitor weather reports. 

Sincerely, 

Larry Robinson, Ph.D. 

President
