    Remote Instruction Continues  – Thursday-Friday, Jan. 29-30

    Remote instruction will continue on Thursday and Friday for Hickory and Asheville locations.

    This decision reflects our ongoing priority to support the safety of our community as weather conditions evolve across the region. By making a decision about Friday now, we aim to provide clarity and allow everyone to plan accordingly.

    Important reminders:

    • Faculty: Continue to communicate directly with students regarding course expectations.

    • Staff: Remain in contact with your supervisors regarding work arrangements.

    We appreciate everyone’s flexibility and care for one another as we navigate these conditions together.

    We will continue to monitor the forecast and will communicate any additional updates as needed.

We're here to help. Here are a few links to help you stay in touch and get the information you need.

Alumni Email


Your student email address will be turned off by Information Technology approximately six months after graduation. We encourage alumni to prepare for this transition by saving important files from their LR student email account. LR does not provide email accounts for alumni and encourages alumni to create an alternate email account either through Outlook.com, Gmail or another provider.
