Message from Vice President Jon Dooley to the Elon University community
January 22, 2025
***
- University opening delayed to noon for Elon and Greensboro campus locations
- The start of undergraduate classes will be delayed until noon and will be held on the revised schedule
- The School of Law and graduate program directors will communicate directly with students and faculty about class schedules
- University offices will open at 12 p.m., except for select offices/services
- Essential/emergency personnel will be notified by supervisors when to report to campus
Light snow fell across the region Tuesday night, with much of our area receiving a half inch or less of accumulation. However, much of the snow was able to stick to roads due to the cold temperatures, resulting in hazardous driving conditions. Facilities Management crews have done a tremendous job clearing the campus, but city and county roads may not be in the same condition.
As we prepare for a noon start, use caution when coming to campus. Slippery conditions could persist on and around campus, as surfaces are treated but may re-freeze due to cold temperatures.
As noted in our severe weather guidance, faculty and staff who live some distance from campus and who might be prevented from safely traveling to campus should notify their respective dean (faculty) or supervisor (staff). Students who might be prevented from traveling safely should contact their instructors.
