To ensure the safety of our students, faculty and staff, the University will open at 10 a.m. on Monday, Feb. 23. All in-person classes starting before 10 a.m. are cancelled.
Students are advised to check Blackboard and campus e-mail for messages and/or assignments from faculty regarding classes before 10 a.m.
Employees should report to campus for 10 a.m. Some personnel necessary to the operation of the University, including those who work in the Physical Plant, Dining Services, the Falcon Center, and Public Safety, are considered essential employees and are expected to report to campus.
Please take caution when traveling to and from campus. Additional weather updates will be communicated through our emergency alert system, social media, and the University website.
Note that due to this weather system, we anticipate closure of the top deck of the parking garage for the next few days. (This location accounts for a significant portion of winter slip, trip, and fall injuries on campus. To support the integrity of the structure, salt or other ice melting agents cannot be used. Structural deterioration from de-icers can lead to major repairs costing hundreds of thousands of dollars.) The University will alert motorists via large yellow signs posted at the traffic circle, near Turley Center, and at the top of the hill.
Now more than ever before, it’s vital to fully fund higher education in West Virginia.
