Winter is upon us. So that we can all be prepared, this would be a good time to review UMBC’s Inclement Weather Policy which is posted here.
During inclement weather events, you will find up-to-date information posted on the UMBC homepage and myUMBC. The campus hotline phone number is 410-455-6789 or ext. 5-6789 from on campus and will be updated as situations change during such events as well.
I also encourage you to sign up for E2Campus, an emergency alert text-messaging system that will permit the university to notify you regarding any campus-related emergency (such as potential campus safety hazards or campus closures due to weather). The system is compatible with mobile phones, Blackberries, “smart phones,” satellite phones, e-mail, wireless PDAs and pagers. Normal text-messaging rates apply. There are no additional charges. Sign up for this important service today here.

Campus hazards? It’s extremely hazardous outside right now and nearly impossible to walk around since all sidewalks are covered with ice and no salt. Don’t even bring up the parking lots.
Bet we’ll all be in tomorrow bright and early for finals, hazards be damned!
