Georgia Tech’s Office of Emergency Management is tracking Hurricane Helene, a storm that the National Weather Service says may be an “unprecedented event” for Atlanta. Primary hazards include significant rainfall with the potential to cause flash flooding as well as wind gusts that have the potential to affect trees and power lines. For more information on impacts to campus, visit OEM’s website.

Your safety and security are our utmost priority. As such, Georgia Tech will move to Modified Operations and Digital Learning Days on Thursday, Sept. 26, and Friday, Sept. 27. A related FAQ on these policies is available.  

For instructors:

  • Please review the guidelines for digital instruction. During Digital Learning Days, in-person instruction is not permitted.
  • Shift to digital learning on Thursday and Friday, as we will be functioning under Modified Operations.  
  • Please be flexible with students during this time.

For employees:

  • Employees will either perform their duties remotely, work in person as part of critical operations, or be eligible for inclement weather pay.  
  • Supervisors, timekeepers, and/or local HR representatives will provide specific details by job type, ensuring flexibility during this period.

For students:

  • Be prepared to shift to digital learning on Thursday, Sept. 26, and Friday, Sept. 27. There will be no in-person instruction on those days.
  • Ensure you have access to the necessary resources for online instruction and look for information from your instructors.
  • Some student activities, events, programs, and services may be cancelled, reduced, or shifted to virtual modalities. Check the sponsoring department for the most current information about co-curricular offerings.
  • Take shelter and remain off the roadways to the greatest extent possible.

Again, the safety and security of the campus community is our primary concern. And we ask everyone to remain flexible and prepared during this time.
