As we approach the winter season, we want students, faculty, and staff to know expectations for teaching, learning, and working if campus is affected by inclement weather.   

 

If weather conditions necessitate a closure:

Faculty and students 
A campus closure is applicable to all faculty and students, meaning that both in-person and online classes are canceled for the day. Inclement weather may cause a disruption in communication channels and internet access, and in order to provide a consistent learning experience, all students and faculty will follow closure protocols.

Staff 
Essential personnel (who are already pre-identified by their departments, such as facilities staff) must report in-person. Staff who ordinarily work on campus do not need to report to campus and do not need to work remotely.  

Staff who have a remote work agreement in place also do not need to work that day unless instructed to by their supervisor for critical business needs. The university encourages flexibility and equity. 

 **As a reminder to our colleagues who regularly track work hours in addition to leave time, please add administrative leave or regular work time to your timesheet for the snow closure day in order to be paid correctly for that day.
