SEVERE WEATHER POLICY
UK NORTHERN KENTUCKY MSW PROGRAM
Effective Spring 2003
If UK and/or NKU are closed due to severe weather, UK’s
Northern Kentucky MSW program will not hold classes. You can
check for university closure information by visiting UK and
NKU’s websites: www.uky.edu or www.nku.edu. Both post this
school closure information on their home pages.
UK’s inclement weather policy can be found at the following
address: http://www.uky.edu/PR/News/severe_weather.htm or you
can call 859-257-5684 for cancellation information. Contact NKU
Public Safety department at 572-6165 or 6166 for recorded
information on university closure due to inclement weather.
Each instructor should have a policy for how they will contact
students in the event that they need to cancel classes due to severe
weather or other emergencies when UK or NKU are still open.
In the event classes are not cancelled during inclement weather,
use your own best judgment about whether or not the roads are
safe for you to travel to classes. We are a very spread out group
and some students live in rural areas where the roads are not taken
care of as well. Just be sure to let your instructor know if you will
be missing class and why.
