Campus Access, Resources, and Support

April 28, 2024 - 7:39 p.m.

A hard closure of campus is now being enforced through May 10, and individuals are prohibited from entering or being on campus without permission. The safety and security of our entire campus community are at the forefront of every decision being made. Work and academic instruction will be remote and a process has been defined for authorized personnel to campus access. 

Since Monday, the University’s goal has always been to bring a peaceful end to the occupation. The University continues to talk to anyone willing to have productive and respectful dialogue.

Performance Ensembles

Humboldt Music Academy believes that making music together is an essential part of musical training. Ensemble participation supplements private study; we expect all students also to be taking lessons on their instrument.
