SEPT 17 2:30 P.M. UPDATE: HGTC classes are canceled for the remainder of the week. Employees are asked to return to work tomorrow only if they are able to safely do so. The safety of our students and our employees is paramount, and we want to give everyone enough time to safely return to the area. We encourage you to monitor communications from SCDOT, NCDOT, Horry County Emergency Management and Georgetown County Emergency Management to track road closures and flood hazards before you try to return home. Please note: the tuition payment deadline has been extended to Tuesday, September 25.
