MANCHESTER, Jamaica — Northern Caribbean University (NCU) has announced that classes will recommence on Monday, November 10, in the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa. The university, in a statement released on Tuesday, acknowledged the profound challenges faced by students grappling with the devastation wrought by the hurricane. To address these difficulties, NCU has implemented a series of supportive measures tailored to assist students who may be unable to return to campus due to disrupted access to essential services such as transportation and internet connectivity. Students encountering such obstacles are encouraged to promptly contact their respective faculty chairs, deans, or regional campus coordinators to explore alternative learning arrangements, including adaptable assessment options for the current semester. For those unable to engage with the university within this academic period, NCU has pledged to facilitate their reintegration in January 2026, ensuring they receive the necessary support to navigate their recovery journey. Additionally, course materials and content will be made available on the Moodle platform, allowing students to progress at their own pace. The university has also committed to flexibility in assignment submissions and other academic activities, underscoring its dedication to student welfare during this challenging time.
