Dear Students, Staff, and Faculty,

We appreciate your cooperation throughout today as we have been navigating the ever-changing, stressful aftermath of this morning’s fatal shooting near campus.

After reviewing the latest information, we have made the decision to lift MCAD’s shelter-in-place. That said, we encourage you to stay home if possible. 

We will send updates as needed. Thank you for your continued support of your fellow MCAD community members. We are proud of the care that everyone has shown throughout this terrible day.

Sincerely,
Gwen
