Central New York is under a Winter Storm Warning, with forecast of icy conditions and significant snow accumulation today (Sunday, Dec. 1) and into tomorrow (Monday, Dec. 2). Syracuse University officials have determined to cancel on-site classes on Monday, Dec. 2. All online classes are scheduled as planned.
With many students and other members of the campus community returning to Syracuse from the holiday break—and road conditions in certain areas being poor and many airline flights and trains canceled—the University urges individuals to use caution and take whatever time is needed for travel. Safety first.
Limited status means faculty, as well as administrative and office staff, are not required to report to campus. Essential services employees (campus safety and emergency services, campus facilities, food services, residence hall and student activities staff and others deemed essential by their supervisor) are asked to report as normally scheduled. Staff members who are uncertain if they’re considered essential should contact their supervisor directly.
Though on-site classes are canceled, many essential student services will remain available, including the following:
The University will continue to monitor weather conditions. In the event of continued inclement weather and if additional schedule changes become necessary, the news will be announced via the University’s emergency broadcast notification system and will carry the notice SU WEATHER ALERT.
SU WEATHER ALERT information will be announced:
Only Syracuse University’s SU News team is authorized to transmit to the news media announcements about the University’s operating status.
As always, campus community members should be aware and take precautions when severe weather is in the area. If community members experience weather conditions that could affect their safety when traveling to and from the University, they are encouraged to use their judgment as it relates to travel. Faculty and staff concerned about their safety should contact their department head or supervisor, respectively.
