Bad Weather Policy

In the event of bad weather conditions, the CEC follows the policies and procedures put in place by the University of Nebraska.

UNO Weather Emergency Committee

The decision to close the university will be made in consultation with the Weather Emergency Committee established by the Chancellor. This committee shall have representatives from University Communications, Facilities Management and Planning, the Vice Chancellors Office for Academic and Student Affairs, the Office of the Registrar, the Office of Human Resources, and others as input is required.

 

Cancellation of Scheduled Events

When the Weather Emergency Committee decides to close the university, the CEC will also close. All CEC events should be considered canceled at the time the closure is effective. If an event is in progress, it must end at the time of campus closure. The CEC will reopen for events at the time the campus reopens. Event attendees should check with the event organizer for additional information. 

 

UNO Bad Weather Announcements

The Office of University Communications will maintain a current list of news media outlets for public announcements, as well as a recorded message on 402.554.2255 and up-to-date announcements on UNO’s website. An emergency and weather text alert has also been put in place. Sign up for the UNO Emergency Alert System.
