Dear ÎÞÂëרÇø students, faculty and staff,

The ÎÞÂëרÇø continues to closely monitor Tropical Storm Elsa and any potential impacts to the Tampa Bay region. The safety of our students, faculty and staff is our highest priority as we track the storm.

Based on the latest weather information, all ÎÞÂëרÇø classes will be delivered remotely on Tuesday, July 6, and Wednesday, July 7. ÎÞÂëרÇø employees should also work remotely until Thursday, July 8. 

ÎÞÂëרÇø buildings – with the exception of housing, dining and ÎÞÂëרÇø Health clinical facilities – will close until Thursday morning in order to make preparations for impending weather. Buildings on the St. Petersburg and Sarasota-Manatee campuses will close at 3 p.m. today. Buildings on the Tampa campus will close at 7 a.m. on Tuesday, July 6. In-person classes and university operations are expected to resume normally by Thursday, July 8, pending weather conditions. Bull Runner service will be suspended during the same period.

Residence halls and residential dining facilities at the ÎÞÂëרÇø Tampa and ÎÞÂëרÇø. St. Petersburg campuses remain open.

ÎÞÂëרÇø Health clinical operations are expected to continue normally until further notice.

Only ÎÞÂëרÇø employees who are classified as essential personnel and/or those identified by their supervisors as vital to campus operations should report to on-campus work while buildings are closed. Please contact your supervisor if you are unsure of your status. Employees who are not essential and whose job functions do not allow for remote work should work with their supervisors and ÎÞÂëרÇø Human Resources to make appropriate accommodations.

We urge students, faculty and staff to plan carefully, follow local weather reports and monitor updates and guidance from county and state emergency management officials. The ÎÞÂëרÇø Hurricane Guide also serves as a valuable resource for the university community. 

University leadership will continue to monitor the storm and provide updates as needed. Any significant updates regarding changes to normal business operations will be shared via usf.edu, ÎÞÂëרÇøâ€™s official social media channels, MyÎÞÂëרÇø and email.
