In response to the devastation suffered by the Gulf Coast in the wake of
Hurricane Katrina, Hamilton College is eager to assist its Central New York
student neighbors. Those students who are within commuting distance of Clinton,
N.Y., and who are enrolled in colleges and universities in the Gulf area that
have been forced to suspend operation are welcome to take classes for credit at
no cost at Hamilton this fall, depending on course availability. Local students
who were enrolled or planned to enroll at colleges located in the disaster area
are encouraged to contact Hamilton's Office of the Dean of Students immediately
at 315-859-4020.
Hamilton's alumni office is also gathering information concerning the welfare of alumni from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama who may have been affected by Katrina. Those with information are asked to contact Jon Hysell at jahysell@hamilton.edu or at 315-859-4606.
Several student groups are planning fundraisers to assist the victims of Hurricane Katrina. In addition, the College is conducting an American Red Cross blood drive on Tuesday, Sept. 6, 11:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. In light of possible long-term economic challenges for Gulf Coast residents, Hamilton will give special financial consideration to future students living in the affected area.
