On Thursday, March 24, UConn announced the outage on the Storrs campus, which prompted a cancelation of all afternoon and evening in-person and remote classes.

The outage marks the second in four days that forced authorities to call off planned classes due to outages.

It is unclear what caused the outages.

Officials said that regional campus in-person learning will proceed as usual.


“Students will be provided further information about residential life facilities,” they noted. “Essential employees report to work as usual. Employees on the Storrs campus should consult with their manager for further guidance.”
