> The Governor’s Office has issued an order to all state agencies 
> requiring them to assist evacuees from the areas impacted hurricane 
> Rita. Texas Tech University and Texas Tech University Health Sciences 
> Center are responding as requested. The plan for accepting evacuees 
> utilizes Reese Center facilities first. When Reese Facilities are 
> full, the Lubbock Municipal Coliseum will be the next facility 
> utilized. If there remains a need to house evacuees Gaston Hall and 
> Apartments on the Texas Tech campus will be the third facility 
> utilized. All persons arriving from the impacted areas will be bussed 
> to Reese Center for identification, in-processing and background 
> checks. Identity badges will be issued to evacuees by the agencies 
> providing relief assistance. Texas Tech Police Officers will be on 
> duty 24 x 7 to provide security at all facilities utilized on the TTU 
> campus. We anticipate that some of these persons may be elderly or 
> have medical needs that can best be met by Lubbock.  We do not 
> anticipate any significant impact on the conduct of classes and other 
> business at the university. Tech Announce will provide additional 
> information as well.
