Severe Winter Weather Policy

The decision to close the university, including the CEC, will be made by the Chancellor's Winter Weather Committee. 

Cancellation of Scheduled Events

When the Chancellor's Winter Weather Committee decides to close the university, the CEC will also close. All events scheduled in the CEC 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. 

Winter 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.
