Extreme Heat Precautions and Resources

As temperatures begin to rise, please take precautions and note that the Fowler Student Center will be open as a designated air-conditioned cooling station.

The National Weather Service is predicting temperatures in the 90s or higher this week. Please remember that extreme heat may increase the potential for heat-related illnesses, particularly for those working or participating in outdoor activities. Be prepared to drink plenty of fluids, stay in air-conditioned spaces when possible, and stay out of the sun.

To help those of you who will be on campus, Fowler Student Center will be open as a designated air-conditioned cooling station, and drinking water will be available in the lobby next to the Fields Dining Room.

If you find yourself or someone else in need of emergency assistance on campus, please contact Campus Safety at 503-768-7777.
