ALERT: Utility/Power Failure on Campus – UPDATE

June 11, 2025 - 11:28 AM

UPDATE: Utility/Power Failure on Campus

Meadville Water Authority is just completing the the main water line repair on the north side of campus and and the water line should be pressurized shortly.

CAUTION FROM THE WATER AUTHORITY: A loss of positive water pressure is a signal of the existence of conditions that could allow contamination to enter the distribution system through back-flow by back‑pressure or back‑siphonage. As a result, there is an increased chance that the water may contain disease-causing organisms.

DO NOT DRINK THE WATER WITHOUT BOILING IT FIRST. Bring all water to a rolling boil, let it boil for one minute, and let it cool before using; or use bottled water. You should use boiled or bottled water for drinking, making ice, washing dishes, brushing teeth, and food preparation until further notice. Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches. These symptoms, however, are not caused only by organisms in drinking water, but also by other factors. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to seek medical advice. Guardians of infants and young children and people at increased risk, such as pregnant women, some of the elderly, and people with severely compromised immune systems, should seek advice from their health care advisors about drinking this water. General guidelines on ways to lessen the risk of infection by microbes are available from EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1 (800) 426‑4791.

The Water Authority will inform local residents when the water is safe to drink. An updated message Emergency Message will be sent from Public Safety.

Students, faculty and staff should monitor e-mail, the college web site, social and local media for updated information and further updates.
Contact Campus Safety in the event of an emergency: 814-332-3357.

Mathematics Minor Learning Outcomes

Students who successfully complete a minor in Mathematics are expected to:

  • Achieve mastery of a diverse collection of mathematical ideas, including the ideas of calculus;
  • Communicate mathematics both orally and in writing;
  • Think analytically and critically to create mathematical models of real world problems, analyze them, and interpret the analysis.

The Mathematics Minor

The minor in Mathematics requires at least 20 semester credit hours of Mathematics courses numbered MATH 152 or higher (with the exception of MATH 157, 158, 159, 160, 170, 210).  At least four semester credit hours must include a Mathematics course numbered 300 or above. FSMAT 201 may be counted toward the minor in Mathematics.  

Students in cooperative programs who want to minor in Mathematics must meet the requirements for the minor.

Mathematics minors are required to have a GPA of at least 2.0 in Mathematics courses at graduation. All Mathematics courses taken at Allegheny having a number higher than MATH 151 must be taken on a letter-grade basis. For the purposes of graduation, and with the approval of the Department Chair, if a student completes more than the minimum number of credits required for the Mathematics minor, then the GPA in Mathematics may be computed using selected Mathematics courses numbered MATH 152 or higher (except 157, 158, 159, 160, 170, 210) that satisfy all requirements for the Mathematics minor. In the case of repeated courses taken at Allegheny, only the most recent grade is included. Courses transferred to Allegheny will not be included in the departmental GPA.
