In-Person Meetings for Day Classes are Cancelled for Thursday, February 6, 2025; Classes Taking Place at 4 p.m. or later Being Held As Scheduled.

Classes Beginning at 4 p.m. or Later

Classes that begin at 4 p.m. and later today are being held as scheduled.

As environments vary in different parts of the State, commuting students should utilize their best judgement when deciding whether to come to campus and faculty are asked to be flexible in accommodating student requests during inclement weather, defining alternatives or makeup provisions as needed. Similarly, faculty members who must change their class format should notify impacted students by e-mail immediately and define what their alternate delivery approach will be.

Classes Beginning Prior to 4 p.m.

As previously announced, 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.

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.
