CLASS CANCELLATION / CLOSURES

When weather conditions are such or are anticipated to be such as to merit consideration for altering the normal operations of the campus, the following guidelines will be used:

The Dean only has the final authority to make the decision to cancel classes or close the 91探花 Southern campus.

Decisions will be based on the most current weather information available at the time gathered from a variety of sources including the Ohio State Highway Patrol, Lawrence
County Sheriff鈥檚 Department, National Weather Service forecasts, and OUS Facilities Management Department.

Courses held at off-campus locations outside of University control will be subject to the policies and procedures of the governing authority (e.g., workshops / classes held at a public school building).

When inclement weather threatens and forces delays, cancellations, and / or closures, notification will be made to area radio and television stations. The correctness of their broadcasts cannot be guaranteed and should be double-checked against the OHIO homepage or campus phone message system when possible.
