Here is the latest information from Coe College:

Power was restored to the main campus on Saturday evening. Regular campus activity will resume on Monday.

July 11, 2008, 10:00 a.m.

We have just been informed that the crews working to restore power on campus have encountered further difficulties. It is now the case that power is not likely to be restored on the main campus until sometime tomorrow. The crews are doing everything possible to bring up electrical service, and we ask for your patience as we deal with this difficult situation.

• On Wednesday afternoon, July 9, an underground power line near Eby Annex ruptured. Much of the campus lost power. Power will likely be restored mid to late afternoon on Friday, July 11.
• Some buildings continue to have electricity and persons working therein need not cease normal activities. Individuals working in buildings that have lost power should consult with their respective supervisors on when to return to campus.
• Due to the power outage, Coe's computer systems, including e-mail, the Web site, the network, and the AS400 are not operational. However, campus telephone service has now been restored in most buildings.
• All members of the campus community should check this Web site (www.coecollege1851.org) for continuing updates on the college's status.
