We will reopen the campus on Saturday.For employees and students processing this terrible news and needing support, these resources are available:<ul><li>Employees can access mental health resources through Lyra Health either online or by calling their Care Navigator team at 877-505-7147 (available 24/7).</li><li>Students can connect with Anytime, Anywhere for in-the-moment support (available 24/7).</li><li>Student Health and Wellness provides counseling services at OSU-Cascades.
