Summary
Monday, Aug. 24 classes and operations will continue as scheduled at the University of Nevada, Reno’s main, Redfield and Lake Tahoe campuses after officials assessed the Hawk Fire and nearby smoke conditions.
The university said its campuses remain outside both evacuation and yellow “Get Ready” zones, though leaders are still tracking fire activity, air quality and guidance from local authorities.
Students in evacuation zones can seek temporary housing and other help through the Dean of Students Office, while those unable to attend classes are urged to notify instructors or request assistance.
Smoke is still affecting the Reno area, and the university said emergency response and evacuation plans are already in place if conditions worsen.
