they're not evacuating campus. they canceled class. big difference. students will still be in dorms if they live there if they wish to be.

per their website:

The University of Florida is cancelling classes today at 3 p.m. and closing offices at 5 p.m. in Gainesville/Alachua County.

Campus is also closed Friday.

Essential university personnel should check with their supervisors as to whether they should report for work.

Information on Saturday's football game against LSU and campus operations that day will be announced later today.

Additional information about leave entry will be provided next week.

Supervisors, please ensure that all employees, including OPS, are informed of this closure.

Students are advised:

Do not travel toward the storm. Be aware that a broad area will be impacted by the storm so we suggest staying in Gainesville. Travel will be hazardous.
Stay inside.
Charge your cell phone and other devices before the storm starts in case you lose electricity.
Never use candles during a storm. Remember, they are a violation of the Conduct Code if lit in a campus building.
SNAP will operate Thursday until midnight. SNAP will be closed on Friday and will return to normal hours on Saturday if it is safe to do so. RTS will suspend on-campus and Later Gator bus services during the UF closure, and will discontinue all service during sustained winds of 35 mph so monitor bus schedules for stoppages. Additional RTS information may be found at www.go-rts.com.
The Dining facilities on campus will operate at the hours posted on www.gatordining.com. Please check back frequently as they are subject to change due to continual weather updates. Consider when stopping by a dining outlet to grab something extra as conditions may worsen throughout the day on Friday. It is important to plan ahead and have additional food to eat if conditions are unsafe later in the day.
If you live on campus, your Housing and Residence Education staff is there to assist. Check with Hall staff if needed.
You should move valuable items away from windows or off of the floor in case of wind/rain damage regardless of height of your building.

Where do the UF players go?


They are going with Jeremy Foley on the search for flight MH370. As soon as it is located an announcement on the game will take place.

Cafe Risque? Apparently, they bare all.


Man, that place is terrible. The only place I know of that charges you to EXIT (or so I've heard.)

They may need to use the stadium like we did for triage or set up temp housing. IT IS STUPID TO THINK THEY ARE GOING TO PLAY A GAME THERE THIS WEEK.
