<\/p>\nWith winter approaching, this reminder on weather
\nand other emergencies is for all faculty, students and staff .<\/p>\n
In the event of a cancellation or delay of classes or activities, pertinent information and announcements are distributed in the following ways:<\/p>\n
\u25a0 RAVE<\/a> <\/strong>text and email* Please do not call University Police for the status of classes or the campus. It is vital to keep the University Police phone lines available for true emergencies. Likewise, do not call administrative departments or the campus operators.<\/p>\n FACULTY\/STAFF:<\/strong> If you have specific questions, contact your supervisor. Some offices also maintain phone chains; your department head will know if this additional communication channel is being used in your department.<\/p>\n STUDENTS:<\/strong> If you have specific questions about the rescheduling of exams or assignments, contact your academic department or your School dean\u2019s office.<\/p>\n As weather events evolve and circumstances change, it is important to keep checking the website, news media, your email account, and other communication venues for updates. Even if classes are canceled, administrative and academic offices are customarily open, as only the Governor can order a complete closing of the campus. If offices are open, then staff who do not report to work must inform their supervisors and charge their accruals.<\/p>\n *Sign up for RAVE<\/strong><\/a>, which distributes text messages on class cancellations or delays.
