Public Safety is tracking a significant snowfall that will be arriving in our area late Sunday morning (Jan. 25). It will snow heavily throughout the day and evening eventually tapering off Monday (Jan. 26) with 10-14 inches expected statewide. A sleet and freezing rain mix is also possible along the shore. Temperatures will be in the teens and twenties.
Due to this significant winter storm and the extensive campus clean-up operations that will need to take place, all in-person day and evening classes scheduled for Monday, January 26, 2026 have been cancelled. All scheduled in-person classes will transition to being held online or remotely. Additional information on the virtual format for each class will be provided by your 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. 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 for residential students to use for study space and to participate in online classes.
Off-campus students that live in the City of West Haven should abide by the city’s parking ban during inclement weather to avoid having their vehicle tagged and towed. Please check the City of West Haven’s website for further information on their snow parking ban.

I am looking forward to celebrating the University’s 100th birthday at the virtual Centennial Ball on Saturday, October 3, while enjoying great music with my fellow Chargers. I hope you’ll join us as we celebrate our history and our future.

What could be better than celebrating the 100th year of our amazing University? Celebrating with the arts, of course!
As someone who has been involved in the arts for my entire life, I know just how much music can bring a group of people together – especially during times as unprecedented as these. With the amazing lineup we have planned for our Centennial Ball, these artists are sure to wow the audience, leaving them wanting more after each act. Register NOW to join me on Saturday, Oct. 3, for an evening we won’t soon forget.
People may not always be aware of it, but music surrounds us constantly. From the lobby of a hotel to the local coffee shop, music is a big part of our lives. With many genres available for people to enjoy, each person is likely to find their favorite and easily connect with others who enjoy the same style.
I grew up surrounded by the arts, and live theatre is an incredibly important part of my identity. The music, the messages, and the people involved have shaped me into who I am today and taught me many lessons that I can apply to other areas of my life.
The musical theater industry thrives off entertained audiences. Artists rely on exposure to support the industry and help it succeed. Events that expose the world to theater, such as the Centennial Ball, are important to the industry, as they introduce audiences to theater who may not otherwise have the opportunity.
Events such as Broadway Sings at the Centennial Ball are amazing ways for people to become familiar with the world of Broadway. Hosted by special guest Audra McDonald, a six-time Tony Award winner, I’m certain the Centennial Ball will entertain you as we celebrate one hundred years of success at the University of New Haven.
