Ready for winter weather

With snow and cold in the forecast, this is a reminder of the tools you can use to find out if the campus will suspend operations (no classes), close early or open late or close due to a weather emergency. Campus leadership monitors conditions. In the morning, a decision to close or open late would be made by 5 a.m. A decision for evening classes would be made by 6 p.m. Visit the emergency page for the full notification schedule.
