Advisory

Posted: Wednesday, February 5, at 3:00 PM

 

Oakland University will be closed starting at 5 a.m. and continuing until noon on Thursday due to severe weather conditions accompanying an approaching ice storm.

During a university closure, all scheduled classes, regardless of modality, are canceled and all but essential University operations cease. Essential university personnel will be contacted by their supervisors and told to report. All others should not report. Any campus activities outside of classes are canceled unless communicated otherwise.

Normal university operations, including all classes and campus activities, will resume at noon on Thursday.

Campus community members are advised that decisions regarding various changes in university operations are made independently as conditions warrant. During any change in operations, it should not be assumed that additional decisions will be made in conjunction with any decisions made prior.

The university appreciates the patience and cooperation of campus community members as efforts are made to balance OU's commitment to delivering quality educational programs with the need to ensure personal safety during severe weather events.
