Subject: Departure From Residence Halls August 9^th, 2008

Our goal is to have the Shea-Durgin Dormitory empty by NOON on August 9^th, 2008 so that the staff can begin final room inspections and dormitory cleaning.  There is NO graduation ceremony on this day.  This year, as in the past, our Week 6 activities such as the PCC Banquet, Weeper Dance, and final Certificate Ceremony will be limited to our residential staff and students.  We are confident that our final activities will be well received by the students and that they will share all of the details of these last memorable events with you on your way home from campus on August 9^th.

The students have been divided into four groups, each with their own departure time.  It is IMPERATIVE that you arrive on campus according to the time assigned to your student.  This will make for an efficient and easy move-out.  We are confident that if everyone cooperates and sticks to the arrival and departure times we will achieve our goal have having all students safely checked-out by noon.

Times are as follows:

9:45                Zinni-Phillips

10:15              Perkins-Krish

10:45              Kruez-Donahue

11:15              Doherty-Abi-Sadd

We are going to ask that you arrive at Shea-Durgin in the normal Friday Check-Out manner.  You can park your car in either the Shea-Durgin Lower or Upper Lots and then come to the dorm to help your student move-out.  Again, to make this process as efficient as possible, we will have our staff members on hand to assist you!

Please also note that the PCC Office will be closed August 12 to September 3.  All medication must be picked up Saturday morning or it will be discarded and any items left behind must be picked up on Monday August 11 between the hours of 9 am and 4 pm.  We cannot guarantee you will be able to retrieve any items after this date.

Please remember if you need to move out at a time other than the one you are assigned, a written request must be submitted to Ms. Brooks or Mr. Gill no later than Monday August 4^th when you return to campus.
