Remote work encouraged through Feb. 4 while maintaining business and instructional continuity. While delaying the start of most in-person classes will significantly decrease the density of people on campus, all University offices will remain open for business and services will be provided in person and/or virtually.
Supervisors should work through their division leadership team for approval of plans that ensure operational continuity and will not negatively affect services. For employees who need or prefer to come to campus for work, please practice all health and safety protocols.
