A group of Texas Southern University students and faculty stranded in Atlanta after Hurricane Harvey hit Houston returned to their campus Thursday.
The group, which included 17 students, had a layover in Atlanta last weekend but couldn’t catch a connecting flight to Houston because of the storm. Morehouse College students and faculty, along with students from the Atlanta University Center, provided the Texas Southern group food and other items.
Raphael Moffett, Texas Southern's vice president of student services, said their campus didn't appear to have major damage. The university has set up a link on its website, TSU Cares, for anyone interested in donating to students and faculty severely impacted by the storm.
Classes are set to take place Tuesday. Students, meanwhile, are looking for ways to help with local recovery efforts.
“We’re trying making sure we can help with relief efforts in the city,” Moffett said.
