芝大:

The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning for the Chicago area, from 3 p.m. Tuesday until 3 p.m. Wednesday, with predictions of heavy snow and high winds. We are writing to outline some of the planning underway on campus.

While safety officials and University leadership will continue to monitor the situation, at this point there are no plans to cancel or curtail classes or operations on campus-wide basis. Snow removal crews will be working throughout Tuesday and Wednesday in an effort to keep main walkways and building entrances clear. Extra provisions have been made to ensure that residential housing and dining needs are met throughout any storm and its aftermath.

Please check the University website, www.uchicago.edu, for further updates. In the highly unlikely event that we must make any widespread closures or cancellations, we will issue alerts by email, through the cAlert system, and in conjunction with local media. We urge you to take common-sense precautions and do what you can to help one another through the difficult conditions.
