UI will move several classes starting Tuesday due to flooding river

--Some classes scheduled to be held on the University of Iowa arts campus beginning Tuesday will be moved to new locations as a result of the flooding. Those changes will be posted Monday on the University of Iowa Student Information System (ISIS) site. Students enrolled in classes should continue to monitor the site to see if the location of their class has been changed. ISIS can be found online at isis.uiowa.edu.

--Volunteers are still needed to fill sandbags to protect numerous areas across campus. Volunteers should report to Parking Lot 24 at Clinton Street and Fairchild Street for sandbag duty.

--UI employees are encouraged to consider walking, biking or busing to work to help alleviate traffic pressure on city streets caused by the closing of Dubuque Street. In particular, employees who are assigned to park in the Hancher Auditorium lot may consider parking in the Hawkeye commuter lot, located on Hawkeye Park Road on the west side of campus, and taking Cambus.
