香蕉视频官网 Confirms All Classes Resume Virtually Monday Along with Business Operations

Clean up continues outside Odum Library on 香蕉视频官网's campus following Hurricane Helene.

VALDOSTA, Ga. - All classes are set to resume virtually on Monday, Oct. 7, 2024 at 香蕉视频官网. Business operations will also resume on this date. Please see important information below for students, faculty, and staff.

The network issues on campus have been resolved, which means we are officially GOOD TO GO for virtual instruction to start this Monday, Oct. 7 for ALL classes. 

My香蕉视频官网 and all services you access via My香蕉视频官网 are now up and running, and Odum Library will open at 8 a.m. on Monday as a resource for students.

Shuttle bus service is not running at this time. If you are coming to campus, you should park in the Oak Street or Sustella Parking Decks and proceed with caution as you navigate around. There is a lot of debris still on site, so please be careful.

For those of you who still do not have internet access on Monday morning, please reach out to your professors. Many of them are planning on using hot spots in their communities, and that might be an option for you as well.

Starting Monday, October 7, all classes will begin remotely/online until further notice.  

• Faculty will continue their instructional responsibilities in the remote environment. Please reach out to IT or eLearning for any resources or assistance needed to ensure effective course facilitation. 
• Essential staff are expected to return to campus in their assigned roles. 
• Staff with stable internet connection and the ability to fully access and use emails and communication platforms (Teams, Zoom, etc.) will be permitted to work remotely during this period.
• Staff who are not designated as essential but cannot work remotely must also return to campus. However, they may be temporarily reassigned to support other essential functions or provide additional services as needed. 
• While student employees cannot work remotely, supervisors will need to work with their student employees/GAs to determine when to return to work and the schedule they will need to be working.

Supervisors should connect with their direct reports immediately to clarify essential status, discuss any necessary reassignment, or confirm the ability to work remotely. 

Faculty/Department Heads should also ensure they maintain communication with their Department Heads/Deans for guidance during this period.

We understand that some may still be facing personal challenges because of the hurricane. Therefore, employees who are unable to return as assigned or work remotely and who have leave should request it. Employees who do not have available leave, should work with their supervisors/department heads.

Additionally, employees who are absent for more than three consecutive days or have a health condition affecting their return should contact Human Resources.

Thank you all in advance for your cooperation and commitment to our students and our institution. We recognize the important role that each of you, both faculty and staff, plays in ensuring the continuity of our academic and operational functions. Please know that, regardless of where the work is being accomplished, your efforts and contributions are greatly appreciated.
