In-Person Meetings for Day Classes are Cancelled for Thursday, February 6, 2025; Online/remote classes to be held as determined by Faculty.
Thursday's weather forecast calls for snow to arrive in our area at approximately 7 a.m., with snow falling at a moderate rate for 2 or 3 hours before it changes to a brief period of freezing rain and then a changeover to plain rain by early afternoon, ending all together by mid-afternoon. Total snow accumulation is predicted to be 2-3 inches. This will result in hazardous driving conditions.
Due to the storm’s timing and the potential for freezing rain, all in-person day classes on Thursday, February 6, 2025 are cancelled. All scheduled in-person classes beginning before 4 p.m. will transition to being held online or remotely.
Additional information on the virtual format for each class will be provided by the instructor. Any change in the status for Thursday evening's classes beginning at 4 p.m. or later will be announced by 1 p.m. Thursday.
Faculty have been asked to prepare for Online or Remote sessions in the event of in-person meeting cancellations. These options will be determined by the Faculty member and all questions should be directed to the Faculty teaching each course section. Faculty also have been asked to be very understanding and accommodating of the individual situations of their students who may have difficulty managing these alternative online or remote class meetings on short notice.
Please note that only essential employees, as previously determined by their respective department leaders, should report to campus Thursday. All other employees should fulfill the requirements of their role remotely.
Campus operations for residential students, unless otherwise noted, will operate as scheduled, though hours may be modified or changed based on the conditions. Separate messages will be sent from the Peterson Library, the Beckerman Recreation Center, and Dining Services regarding any changes to their normal hours of operation. The Bergami Center for Science, Technology, and Innovation will remain open Thursday for residential students to use for study space and to participate in online classes.
Residential students should be prepared to move their vehicles, if requested, for snow removal operations.
We will provide updates as warranted. Stay safe.
