Lehigh’s administrators canceled classes Monday and Tuesday in preparation of Hurricane Sandy, according to an LU-ALERT message.
Only essential personal reported to campus Monday and Tuesday. All scheduled university events are officially canceled.
As Sandy moves its way up the East Coast, the Lehigh community should make preparations in anticipation of the powerful storm.
Although administrators are not requiring campus evacuation at this time, if student can return home or another location safely, it is suggested since there will be no classes or events on campus.
“If students feel they can leave campus and do so safely, great,” said Vice Provost John Smeaton. “But it depends on where they are going, [...] It’s up to the students and their parents to decide.”
Students who will remain on campus during the storm were asked to notify Residential Services.
An email from Provost Pat Farrell was sent to members of the community Friday afternoon to encourage students, faculty and staff to sign up for LU-ALERTS and to check back to Lehigh’s website often for updated information regarding the storm and actions the administration could take throughout the storm.
“Our main focus is on safety,” Smeaton said.
WFMZ cited a high wind warning in Lehigh County from 8 a.m. Monday to 9 a.m. Tuesday. The news and weather station is expecting winds at 35 to 45 mph, with stronger gusts up to 75 mph Monday. The strong winds will likely caused damage to trees and downed power lines, which can cause power outages of a long duration.
Smeaton said administrators are discussing how to handle a mass power outage on campus, but no plans were set in stone as of press time.
“At this stage, we have to take it hour by hour,” he said.
The university has an emergency back up power system that can last 12 hours if it is needed, according to Smeaton.
Since Sandy will be at its worse Monday afternoon into Tuesday morning, university officials say campus will return to regular operation Wednesday.
Updated information regarding Lehigh’s campus during the storm will be available on Lehigh’s website, Twitter account (@LehighUNews) and Facebook page. Community members looking for updated information can also call 610-758-6397.

The president and panelists of the Business Careers in Entertainment Club spoke about their internship accomplishments and future plans and shared insight about working in the world of entertainment with Lehigh students at the Rauch Business Center Thursday.
The panelists were juniors and seniors in various majors. As the meeting began, the panelists introduced themselves to the prospective club members and mentioned the internship they were involved in. The panel started with Janie Della Pelle, ’14, intern at Fox News; Nick Gambino, ’13, intern at A&E TV channel; Haley Miller, ’13, intern with the New York Rangers; Jake Gorobetz, ’14, intern with Spike TV channel; Amanda Licari, ’13, intern at Universal Pictures and last; Ali Peikon, ’14, intern with Gilt Groupe.
The panelists offered a wide range of advice to the students that attended. “Apply no matter what, because you never know,” said Della Pelle, who was thrilled when she got her internship with Fox News. The panelists mutually agreed that the interview is crucial part of the job hunt. All of the panelists said the best interviews are as simple as an easy conversation.
Another piece of advice came from Licari: “Try to use your conPL
