Cal Poly Humboldt closed after the earthquake

Cal Poly Humboldt suffered minimal damage and no injuries from the 6.4-magnitude earthquake that struck the area early Tuesday morning, campus officials said, and is expected to reopen Wednesday.

The campus of 8,116 students in Arcata closed Tuesday to all but essential staff as crews searched the buildings for damage and hazardous conditions. Power to most of Humboldt County, including the campus, remained off Tuesday afternoon.

“There are clearly people in our community and parts of the area that were more affected by the earthquake,” said campus spokesman Grant Scott Goforth. “(Our campus) has been very fortunate not to have reported any damages or injuries.”

The powerful quake struck at 2:34 a.m. near Ferndale, about 30 miles southwest of Arcata, killing at least two people, wounding 11 and causing widespread damage, according to the Times-Standard in Eureka.

Joy Min, a senior at Cal Poly Humboldt, said she was awakened by the quake’s roar and shattering images falling from the wall of her apartment.

“It was really scary,” said Mehn, who specializes in political science. “Now there is no power. Everything is shut down. There is no heat. It’s cold. We are all at the seams.”

Her friend Nicole Hoffman, also elderly, said she and her neighbors gathered outside immediately after the earthquake and considered fleeing to higher ground in the event of a tsunami. The tsunami never occurred, but aftershocks continued throughout the morning.

“I’ve never had an earthquake this strong,” said Hoffman, an elementary education specialist. “It was scary, but we’re fine.”
