We are thankful for the Wolfpack! Emergency responders from North Carolina State University traveled to University of North Carolina Asheville this week to assist with rescue and recovery efforts, including relocating students and cleaning out damaged buildings and residence halls. Campuswide, students, faculty, and staff have been collecting supplies to send to western locations. #Helene
“We wanted to let people know as much as we could that this would be one of the most significant weather events in the western portions of North Carolina in the modern era,” said alumna Trisha Palmer, an atmospheric scientist for the National Weather Service. From alumni experts and NC State Extension specialists to emergency responders and football players, the Wolfpack has stepped up in the wake of Hurricane Helene. 🔗 See how NC State is supporting our UNC System partners and Western North Carolina communities — and how you can help: http://ncst.at/yczr50TCNgs

The UNC System is working closely with leaders at Appalachian State University, University of North Carolina Asheville and Western Carolina University, as well as the North Carolina Arboretum and the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics-Morganton, to provide aid and support in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Support for campuses in the western part of the state has poured in from across the UNC System, with additional staff and supplies being deployed to affected institutions. “Our emergency response was underway even before the storm hit,” said UNC System President Peter Hans. “I want to especially thank the campuses across our state that have provided mutual aid and much-needed support to their sister universities in the mountains. The scale of this disaster is tremendous, and the recovery is going to be long and difficult.” Find out how you can help: https://ow.ly/XYmr50Tzvzq

Message from University of North Carolina Asheville Chancellor Kimberly van Noort: “Conditions at UNC Asheville are difficult. Significant tree damage has occurred and parts of campus are inaccessible. Everyone is safe. Cell and internet coverage is nonexistent at this point. Classes will be suspended until Oct. 9. We are providing security, food, water, and comfort to the students remaining on campus.” #Helene #WesternNC #WesternNorthCarolina #NC #UNCA #Asheville
