COM will be closed beginning on Thursday, September 11th. COM is planning to reopen on Monday, September 15th, depending upon the condition of the campus after the storm. Please watch the news and monitor our web site for news regarding the re-opening of the College.
COM offers students and staff a way to be notified should the college close. COM subscribes to a notification service that alerts the media when COM closes, but it also alerts students and employees via either text message or e-mail. Students, staff or others interested in receiving the COM alerts can go to the web site www.school-alerts.com and subscribe to the free service. Students can also check the school-alerts.com web site anytime for the same information.

The COM web site - www.com.edu - and the COM switchboard 409-938-1211 will also provide emergency closing information.
