WVU Alert: WVU Morgantown Campus to be closed Monday (Jan. 6)
On-campus operations for the West Virginia University Morgantown Campus will be closed due to the impending winter storm beginning at 12:01 a.m. Monday (Jan. 6).
Employees who work remotely or on a hybrid schedule are not affected and should continue their normal schedule. On-site employees should communicate with their supervisors to determine if they are required to work on site during the closure.
Facilities Management will continue essential operations such as roads and grounds maintenance.
During the closure, some other University operations may continue with reduced staff and services. Employees, students and visitors should call ahead before venturing out to ensure locations and services are open as conditions may change or services may be limited.
“We urge people to stay indoors and limit travel unless necessary,” University PoliceChief Sherry St. Clair said. “If travel is unavoidable, please use caution and be sure to allow extra time.”
WVU Health Sciences faculty, staff and students who work in patient care areas or in clinical rotations should check with their dean, program director or clinic manager.
The University is scheduled to resume operations at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday (Jan. 7); however, officials will continue to closely monitor reports from the National Weather Service, as well as state, local and campus conditions.
Decisions regarding the WVU Tech and Potomac State College campuses are made separately based on local conditions. WVU Extension will follow its internal inclement weather policy, which can be found here.
