Inclement Weather

Should weather conditions create potentially hazardous conditions, Lindenwood University (LU) will evaluate the situation and take into consideration the safety of the faculty, staff and students as well as the services that must be provided despite the inclement weather.  After this careful evaluation and depending on the hazardous weather conditions (e.g., tornado, snow/ice, etc.), an alert will be sent to applicable students, faculty, and staff via the Rave system via text message and lionmail. This alert will detail the appropriate action required of faculty, staff and students as well as campus operations and services that must be provided despite the occurrence of inclement weather. 

In the unlikely event that LU alters the normal work and/or class schedule, an announcement will be posted on the university’s home page (lindenwood.edu). An announcement will also be distributed via lionmail, Rave system, and local media stations or whatever is deemed most appropriate for the weather conditions. 

Separate announcements may be made regarding evening classes; where evening classes are defined as those classes starting at or occurring after 4 pm.
