Bldg. 2600 Fire Update

Dear Campus Community,

As most of you know, last week, a fire broke out in building 2600. Based on known variables and extensive professional experience, fire officials provided basic guidance to the college regarding the safety of the building. This included assurance that: 1) the building was safe to enter; and 2) the items being retained or moved could be cleaned with something as simple as Dawn liquid soap. 

As we continue to navigate transitioning items and opening a new space (HSAMCC), the college still believes the original guidance to be true. However, out of an abundance of caution and in response to requests by made college employees, we will take additional steps to test.  We will work with appropriate consultants to test the air, building and equipment surfaces, and the soil around the building. Additional updates will be provided once the test results have been received.

In the interim, if you have questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to those currently leading the college’s response to the fire incident.
