[Linganth] Hurricane Harvey support?

[Lauren Zentz]

Hi everyone,

 I’m a faculty member at the University of Houston (and I am incredibly
fortunate to have come out high and dry). If I have any resources on this I
will share them with you all. For now, everyone is still in evacuation and
life-saving mode, and long-term coping resources are only starting to come
out.

I’m also going to start collecting stories from people I know, so perhaps
that could be the start of a late-breaking Harvey panel.

Dear Linganth colleagues,



During Katrina, Indiana University offered support to college students
displaced by Katrina.  Does anyone know of any universities that are
offering similar support to Houston students? Do you know of universities
that need support? According to many Houston universities’ websites, they
are closed through Labor Day but most seem to be planning on getting back
to business next week.  The University of Houston--Downtown webpage was not
functioning, perhaps a sign of trouble there.



I will set up a Facebook page with any resources for students that you can
share with me.



I am talking to the AAA about a late-breaking Harvey panel.  My New Orleans
colleagues who survived Katrina very much want local Texas anthropologists
to be part of that planning.  Have you or colleagues you know been affected
by Harvey?Would you like to share your experiences and observations at the
AAAs this year?



all best to all of you in these very wet times,



Leila
