EMERGENCY CLOSINGS

In case of possible school closing due to weather, fire, or other emergency, employees and students have several means of accessing closing information and its impact on campus hours of operation.

USI uses email, web postings, voicemail, university message boards, and text messaging to communicate instructions and information related to the decision to close or delay the hours of operation on campus.

The best source for current and correct information about campus closings and delays will be the USI web site, university email, voicemail, university message boards, or text messaging through RAVE.
