Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff:
According to our latest updates from the National Weather Service, our area will continue to be in a winter storm warning through 6 a.m. Wednesday with icy road conditions expected for most of the day tomorrow. In anticipation of those hazardous travel conditions throughout the region, all classes on Wednesday, February 19, will use the university’s remote instruction plan. Students should monitor their UCA email accounts for information from faculty regarding course activities, assignments, and expectations, as well as syllabus adjustments to the overall course schedule.
Business offices will also continue remote operations for Wednesday, February 19. Weather-essential personnel should report to campus. Supervisors, in coordination with division vice presidents, should communicate with employees regarding on-site staffing. All other UCA employees should follow their remote work plan.
The modified hours for essential campus services for Wednesday, February 19, are as follows:
