The Chronicle News Blog: North Dakota Campus to Stay Closed for Rest of Spring Semester
Valley City State University officials decided yesterday to keep their campus closed for the rest of the semester, after flooding from the Sheyenne River prompted Valley City, N.D., to urge about half its residents to evacuate until the waters recede, which may not happen for two weeks.

Just to clarify: you are correct in saying that the campus will be closed for the remainder of the semester, but your wording suggests we have cancelled classes for the semster. In fact, we do intend to complete the semester by using online technologies to allow our students to complete their coursework without coming to campus. As a laptop university, VCSU is in a unique position to make this happen while preserving a quality educational experience.
