Winter weather closure – 14 January 2024

Given the winter storm warning and forecast from the National Weather Service (NWS) for today through Wednesday, the campus will be closed through Wednesday. Classes will resume on Thursday.

This includes operations for Barksdale and the Academic Success Center in Bossier City.

Essential staff who need to be on campus for work will be notified by their supervisors. The Payroll Office will provide guidance for essential employees required to work and instructions for recording leave for the weather closure.

The NWS indicates we will experience dangerously cold conditions beginning today through the middle of the week. There is potential for wintry precipitation across the area later today through Monday night. Expect moderate to minor travel impacts from snow, sleet, and freezing rain.

Please stay off the roads unless you must travel, and use caution on sidewalks and steps outdoors.

Though the campus is closed, some services will be open for students who remain on campus.

Tech Table will be open from 11 a.m.-8 p.m. today, closed Monday for MLK, and open Tuesday and Wednesday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m.

The Lambright Center will be open from noon to 8 p.m. today. Hours for Monday through Wednesday are 10 a.m.-5 p.m. TechCare will be open normal hours.

Please continue to monitor campus communications through email, social media, and the ERT website.
