We don't really know if we need to. Haven't heard anything from Georgetown.
Hello Everyone,
For those interviewing next week this was sent to the Georgetown community regarding the Hurricane and undergrads, but could also apply to those of you coming into town:
Dear Members of the Georgetown University Community,
We are writing to update you on our preparations for possible inclement weather this weekend as we welcome students to campus.
We are watching Hurricane Irene and considering how this storm may impact our community and events planned this weekend, in particular move-in and New Student Convocation.
Our first priority is a successful move-in. At this time, we anticipate that move-in will proceed as planned for our new students. Additionally, we are considering whether it will be safe to hold New Student Convocation as planned. We will update you of changes to our plans as we gather more details about Hurricane Irene's path and potential impacts.
Following post-earthquake structural inspections, three of the crosses on Healy Hall will be removed today in advance of the projected hurricane. The crosses will be re-installed with new anchors as soon as practical. The removal process will require some entrances to Healy Hall to be closed periodically between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. due to the delicate overhead work requiring two cranes. The south entrance to Healy and the entrance from Maguire Hall will remain open throughout the day. We apologize for the short notice and thank you for your cooperation and support as we protect the legacy of Georgetown University.
Please know that we are also making preparations to support students and members of the university community who may be on campus during inclement weather.
Please check

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
