Inclement weather procedures are in effect seven days a week, including weekends. Depending on the circumstances, the College may remain open with a “liberal leave” policy in effect, or the opening of the College may be delayed, or the College may be closed. The College website will have the latest weather-related closing information. Students who have signed up for CampusShield will also receive a text notification of inclement weather. 

Students should check the College web page for information regarding a delayed opening or closing of the College. 

Whenever there is a question, the Office of Public Safety (240-895-4911) will have the most up-to-date, accurate information. If students are in residence, the dining hall will provide food services, and every attempt will be made to ensure that the library, some computer labs, and the campus store are open. Walkways and roads will be cleared and sanded as soon as possible. First priority will be given to walkways between residences and the cafeteria, then to the library.
