Winter Weather Procedures

In the event winter weather forces the cancellation or postponement of classes or campus events, the University will distribute official information through a combination of the following sources, the University website (www.nwosu.edu), campus email (when possible), registered users of the text alert system (update registration at https://nwosu.bbcportal.com), the official University Facebook and Twitter accounts, Instagram (@nwosurangers) and Snapchat (nwosurangers), local media and Oklahoma City television stations.

In the event of an early morning closing, the University will make every attempt to make a decision by 6 a.m. Employees will receive a call from their immediate supervisor.

Whether or not the decision is made to close the campus or cancel classes, those off-campus students commuting to class should use their best judgment when deciding to travel to campus in winter weather conditions. Students who miss a class are urged to make contact with their instructors as soon as possible.
