9.10.24 Update: Regional Wildfires and Air Quality

September 10, 2024

Dear Pitzer Community,

Good afternoon. As our regional fires continue, we want to share that air quality in our buildings at Pitzer is being mitigated by a two-pronged approach in accordance with the LA Dept County of Health recommendations: through our upgraded air conditioning and heating high-efficiency filters that were replaced in all buildings prior to the start of the school year, and through the ion generators (air scrubbers) that were previously installed in all our academic buildings.  Additionally, N95 masks are being provided in every building lobby.  For precautions for poor air quality, reference the 9/9/24 email from Communications entitled: Heat and Wildfire Update – Air Quality Advisory.

Should there be additional needs, please feel free to use our work request form.
 

Regards,
