Only the university president (or a designee) may authorize schedule changes.

Hotline and this webpage are the official sources of information on schedule changes.

Changes affecting classes and work shifts during the regular day will be made as soon as conditions warrant. Changes affecting evening classes and work shifts will be announced by 4 p.m. or earlier if conditions warrant. The complete weather policy is available online.
All members of the campus community are reminded that it is their personal decision as to whether they can safely make it to campus during inclement weather. Each person must make that decision based on his or her individual circumstances.
