Syracuse University is currently monitoring and assessing weather conditions for Friday, Nov. 16. In particular, University leaders and public safety officials are evaluating anticipated travel conditions to and from campus.

If community members experience weather conditions that could affect their safety when traveling to and from the University, they are encouraged to use their judgement as it relates to their travel.

The University will continue to evaluate weather and road conditions through the evening and into early morning. If a change in the University’s operating status becomes necessary, it will be announced:
