Original Post:

Network access on campus will be spotty during the power outage. AEP’s outage map (http://outagemap.aepohio.com.s3.amazonaws.com/external/default.html) indicates the estimated restoration time as 2pm this afternoon. If you need access to the network, there are generators keeping some network infrastructure up in the following buildings:

Burke, Burton Morgan, Doane Admin (Basement),  Ebaugh, Fellows, Herrick,  Higley (Basement), Olin, Physical Plant, Slayter (2nd floor), and several of the residence halls: Beaver, Crawford, East, Gilpatrick, Huffman (Basement), Monomoy, Sawyer, Shaw, Shepardson (Basement, North end), Brown, Good, Kappa Sig, Morrow, Moshier-Hutchinson, Myers, Pratt, Preston, Sunset House, Taylor, King, Monomoy Annex, Stone, Curtis East and West, Shorney (Basement), and Smith.

Please follow the safety recommendations in the campus emergency alert as you move around campus:

  • Please use extreme caution while navigating campus.  Do not walk in wooded areas and please pay attention to overhead danger. The weight of the ice on trees, poles and overhead lines can result in a sudden collapse posing a serious risk.
  • Several roads on campus have been closed and will reopen when the danger of falling limbs is passed.
  • Presidents Drive will remain closed due to these overhead dangers until the risk has subsided.
