Faculty and Staff Encouraged to Depart Campus by Noon; Essential Employees Asked to Report for Their Shifts

Syracuse University has been monitoring weather and travel conditions due to the Wind and Wind Chill Advisories in effect for Central New York. An extreme drop in temperature is expected to cause ice to quickly accumulate on the roads.

As such, and following consultation with the University’s independent meteorologist, faculty and staff are asked to depart campus by noon today to allow time to travel home safely.

Anyone concerned about their safety should contact their department chair or supervisor, respectively.
