Dear Tulane Community,

We continue to closely monitor Tropical Storm Bertha as it moves through the New Orleans area today.

At this time, all university campuses remain open, and normal operations are continuing as scheduled. University officials are actively monitoring weather conditions and are in communication with local, state, and federal partners to assess any potential impacts to our campuses and community.

Dear Tulane Community,

We are closely monitoring Tropical Depression 2, which is expected to strengthen into Tropical Storm Bertha later today.

All Tulane campuses remain open. At this time, we do not anticipate any changes to normal university operations this week.

The system is currently expected to reach our area on Wednesday afternoon. Employees who may be affected by weather-related conditions, including flooding or travel delays, should communicate directly with their supervisors. Supervisors are encouraged to provide flexibility as circumstances warrant.

Normal operations and access to the Diboll garage and complex will resume on Monday. Vehicles that remain in the garage can still be retrieved through the weekend.

A small number of spaces will be unavailable next week as cleanup continues following the vehicle fire on Friday.

We appreciate your continued patience and understanding.

Thank you,
Office of Emergency Preparedness & Response

Due to a vehicle fire at the Diboll Garage on the uptown campus, which damaged several vehicles, access to the complex and the garage will be closed for the foreseeable future.

The safety of our campus community is our top priority. If you have a vehicle currently parked in the garage, you will not be able to access it until the structure has been thoroughly inspected by several agencies and deemed safe to enter.

The cause of the fire is currently under investigation, but no foul play is suspected.

An update will be sent once we have more information.
