Dear Students, Faculty and Staff:

Based on forecasted impacts of Winter Storm Izzy, the University will move to Condition 2 (Suspended Operations) at 6 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 16, and stay in Condition 2 until 8 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 17.

If a change in operating conditions is extended beyond 8 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 17, those changes will be communicated no later than 6 a.m. on Monday.

Campus Units and Services Operational Status

For an up-to-date look at operating status for campus services including dining halls, residence halls, parking and transportation and other campus units and services, visit alertcarolina.unc.edu/status.

Unless a change in operational status is announced, the University always operates on a regular schedule.  Your safety is our number one consideration.  As a rule, students, faculty and staff must use their own best judgement about whether they can travel safely to, from and around campus.
