Carlow Univ. Cancels Classes During G20

Carlow University has joined a growing list of universities and schools canceling classes during the G20 Summit next month in Pittsburgh.
Margaret K. McLaughlin, Carlow’s provost and vice president for Academic Affairs, says classes will be canceled from Wednesday, September 23 at 4 p.m. through Sunday, September 27...
“Although the scheduling of the G-20 in Pittsburgh has been planned for several weeks, the extent of disruption to Carlow only became apparent last week with the official notification that the organizing location for protesters is at Craft and Fifth Avenues,” which is just about a block away.

Classes scheduled for Wednesday evening, September 23, will be rescheduled for Wednesday evening, October 21. Classes scheduled for Thursday, September 24, and Friday, September 25, will be rescheduled for Monday, October 19, and Tuesday, October 20, respectively. Weekend classes scheduled for September 26 and 27 will be rescheduled for the preceding weekend, September 19 and 20.
