LSU EOC Continues to Support Louisiana

Sunday, 9/2/12, 1:45 p.m.

Although Hurricane Isaac has passed through Louisiana and the university has returned to normal operations, the LSU Emergency Operations Center remains open in support of state and federal operations on campus. Fortunately, LSU sustained minimal damage from Isaac. However, various parts of the city and state were not so fortunate. In support of the residents of those areas, the Carl Maddox Field House has been serving as a Medical Special Needs Shelter for the state, and the Pete Maravich Assembly Center has been serving as a Federal Medical Station. As part of LSU’s mission as Louisiana’s flagship university to serve the citizens of the state, the LSU EOC will remain active until all patients have been safely discharged from both the Field House and the PMAC.

LSU EOC Remains Active

2012 Fall Academic Calendar

Thursday, 8/30/12, 2:24 p.m.

The LSU family hopes this communication finds you safe and making progress toward recovery. Isaac left its mark on the LSU campus, but the damage was minimal. We are making rapid progress towards restoring function and form.

Classes will resume on Friday, August 31. Unfortunately we have lost three days of the fall 2012 semester, and that will require some adjustment. Cancellation of Fall Break will allow faculty and students to make up the loss of two class days. A Saturday will be designated to make up the loss of the third class day. That Saturday will be determined in the near future. 

Several academic deadlines have been rescheduled on the Academic Calendar as follows:

Closure for Hurricane Isaac August 28-30 (Tue-Thu) 

Classes resume, 7:30 a.m. August 31 (Fri) 

Final date for dropping courses without receiving a grade of "W," 4:30 p.m., deadline September 4 (Tue)

Final date for adding courses for credit and making section changes 4:30 p.m., deadline September 5 (Wed)

Final date for adding thesis and dissertation research; final date for “degree only” registration September 5 (Wed)

Final date for submitting to Graduate School applications for master’s and doctoral degrees to be awarded at fall commencement September 7 (Fri)

Final date for departments to recommend to Graduate School appointment of examining committees (requests for final examinations) for degrees to  be awarded at fall commencement September 7 (Fri)

Fall Holiday CANCELLED October 18-19 (Thu-Fri)

The remainder of the academic calendar is unchanged.  Beginning at 4:00 p.m., today, students will be able to recommence adding and dropping courses via myLSU. 

We recognize that there is no perfect solution. This is the best approach for meeting the mission of LSU as well as the goals of our faculty and students. The implementation of these changes will require patience and cooperation by all.

LSU Classes will resume on Friday, Aug. 31 

Thursday, 8/30/12, 11:59 a.m.

From LSU Policy Statement 22 (PS-22) Student Absence from Class:

A student who finds it necessary to miss class assumes responsibility for making up examinations, obtaining lecture notes, and otherwise compensating for what may have been missed.

Valid reasons for absences include serious weather conditions.

As of this time, there is no change in the status of Saturday's football game versus North Texas.

Residential Life facilities, including all residence halls, campus apartments and family and graduate housing, will remain open. For students who remain on campus, we ask that you also take all necessary precautions. For your safety, please remain within your residence halls and limit your outside trips to necessary activities such as dining.

In addition, students should remember to stock up on some supplies that may be necessary during and after the storm. All members of the LSU community should consider taking these basic preparatory steps, including:

• Have a working flashlight and a supply of batteries to last several days
• Fill your gas tank, in case gas is difficult to get for a few days
• Purchase enough bottled water to last at least three days (a gallon per day per person is recommended)
• Purchase non-perishable food items, and foods that do not need to be heated, enough for several days
• If buying canned goods, don't forget a hand-operated can opener, or one that does not require electricity
• Locate and have handy all important documents, including any insurance papers

In the event of loss of electrical service to campus due to the storm, the university’s co-generation facility can continue to provide power to campus if possible but at a reduced level. Power priority will be given to designated medical shelter facilities, emergency lighting, sewage and storm water pumping systems, freezers and refrigerators, life safety systems, communication systems, potable water systems and occupied sleeping quarters. Most building air conditioning systems will have to be shifted to “weekend/night mode” unless the facility has its own emergency power backup system. As a precaution, it is recommended that all heat-sensitive equipment such as computers, servers and other nonessential equipment be turned off before you depart. Please do not shut down e-mail servers or other essential equipment; this will hinder critical e-mail communication before, during, and after the storm and may prevent faculty and staff members from receiving important updates and information.

Students, faculty, and staff are urged to monitor local media for current information about the storm and its likely path.

Members of the LSU community are asked to program these and other key phone numbers into their cell phones now, before a potential emergency situation occurs. The LSU Police Department number is 225-578-3231; the Baton Rouge Fire Department is 225-354-1400; the Baton Rouge Police number is 225-389-3000; the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office number is 225-389-5000; and the Louisiana State Police phone number is 225-925-6325 or *LSP from any cell phone.

LSU Emergency Operations Center has been activated and is monitoring weather conditions related to Tropical Storm Isaac

Sunday, 8/26/12, 9:34 p.m.

The LSU Emergency Operations Center has been activated and is carefully monitoring Tropical Storm Isaac. In addition, LSU's Carl Maddox Field House has been designated a Medical Special Needs Shelter by the state.

At this time, classes and events are still scheduled as planned, but any faculty members who have specific needs for their research, such as required refrigeration or freezing, should make contingency plans for possible power outages or contact the LSU EOC for asssistance at 225-578-3231.

It is still unclear what path the storm will take. Therefore, the LSU EOC urges all students, faculty and staff to take steps to be prepared, just in case. Keep in mind that even if Baton Rouge is not directly hit by the storm, the city -- including LSU's campus -- could potentially lose power, possibly for an extended period of time. All members of the LSU community should consider taking some basic preparatory steps, such as:

•  Have a working flashlight and a supply of batteries to last several days
• Fill your gas tank, in case gas is difficult to get for a few days
• Purchase enough bottled water to last at least three days (a gallon per day per person is recommended)
• Purchase non-perishable food items, and foods that do not need to be heated, enough for several days
• If buying canned goods, don't forget a hand-operated can opener, or one that does not require electricity
• Locate and have handy all important documents, including any insurance papers

Please remember that all safety guidelines in LSU's residence halls will still apply, so candles, fire hazards or other items that are not allowed in the residence halls will not be allowed during or after the storm, for everyone's safety.

If students cannot attend classes because of their individual circumstances, they should communicate with their respective faculty members as soon as possible.

Please watch for broadcast email updates as the situation with Tropical Storm Isaac progresses. LSU will also update the homepage, www.lsu.edu, with any updates, as well as LSU's social media accounts.

Be assured that your safety is LSU's top priority. The LSU EOC will do all it can to minimize the effects of the storm on the campus. University officials are already working to ready the campus in case the storm impacts Baton Rouge, and will work around the clock to maintain services during and after the storm. Again, any updates will be posted to LSU's homepage and sent through broadcast email or emergency text message, if necessary.
