Regarding Lockout and Campus Closures
During the early morning hours on Friday, August 5, 2022, a threat was made against several metro-area Colorado Community College System (CCCS) institutions, including Arapahoe Community College (Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ).
The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Campus Police Department is working closely with the CCCS and local law enforcement agencies to monitor the situation. While there does not appear to be any imminent danger, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ campuses will be closed - and on-campus activities will not be held - over the weekend of August 6-7 out of an abundance of caution.
Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ encourages its faculty, staff, and students to refer concerns, unusual behavior, and inappropriate or dangerous conduct to Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Campus Police or the acc [dot] dos [at] arapahoe [dot] edu (Dean of Students) office. The health, safety and well-being of our students and employees is top priority at Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ.
We know that a Lockout can trigger distress. Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ offers no-charge, confidential mental health counseling services to help.
Students can visit or call the Dean of Students Office, 303.797.5730. Employees can reach out to Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Human Resources.
