In Brief: December 10

Emergency weather policies

As the first day of winter approaches, employees are encouraged to review the Emergency Cancellation, Delay and Closing Policy and Procedures.

BGSU is committed to maintaining its class schedule and other student services in all but the most extreme circumstances. If the University is not closed, employees are expected to report to work. However, employees should their own judgment about whether they can safely travel to the University. If not, they may utilize vacation, personal leave or compensatory time (if applicable), but must notify their supervisor. The policy outlines all the options and the appropriate procedures.

Faculty members are reminded to notify students as soon as possible of any individual class cancellations.

Every effort will be made to announce any delay, cancellation or closure by 6 a.m. The news will be shared through AlertBG, email, BGSU social media channels and the news media. This is a good time to log in to MyBGSU and review your phone number and settings in the AlertBG System.
