At this time, a definitive timeline for reopening Buildings 32 and 42 has not been established. The reopening of these facilities remains contingent upon the successful completion of repairs, testing, inspections and confirmation that the affected electrical distribution equipment can be safely re-energized.
Although we understand the critical role these facilities play in supporting academic programs, student success and university operations, safety must remain our highest priority. Re-energizing the system before it is fully restored could result in additional equipment damage, create electrical safety risks and potentially prolong the closure of both buildings.
Visit the Campus Alerts page for more information.
For safety concerns, contact OPSEM at 202-274-5050. For emergencies, call 911.
