Despite days without power and a full campus evacuation, things are settling down. There is a provisional power line up at the college so the administrative building is there and we can make contact from town.
The college sent everyone who could work remotely home. An all-community meeting gathered to hear the president give a belated fire-side chat.
The hum of chainsaws emanate from the recesses of the Marlboro woodland. Carpools are heading into town to restock cupboards. Men with cranes will be picking up wires for days yet. Vermont has risen again in community and kindness, with a slightly more pronounced survivalist undertone.
My email works.
My final exam was canceled and my other deadlines got way extended.
And the world turns...

It's good to hear you and your campus made it through (relatively) safely. I live in western PA, but I've been listening to the storm unfold in the Northeast. Hopefully this is the worst to come for some time.
