Please take your personal possessions with you as the doors across campus will be locked. Please plan accordingly and share details of this campus closure with your students and/or employees. Please also note that the campus will be closed on Saturday, September 20, with exceptions including the Fulton Library and sporting events.  Part-Time, Student, and Non-Exempt Employees: Part-time, student, and non-exempt employees will be paid for their regular hours on Friday. They should adjust their time in TIMS to reflect their regular hours. Supervisors will then finalize and certify hours to confirm they are correct.

The vigil will provide a space for students, faculty, staff, and community members to come together in remembering, healing, and reaffirming shared values. The Vigil for Unity is open to the public.
