In the event of inclement weather, decisions about closures or delays are made with the safety of all members of the Meredith community in mind, and announced as quickly as possible.聽

How and When Decisions are Made

When inclement weather is predicted in the Raleigh, N.C. area, members of Meredith鈥檚 executive leadership team use multiple sources to review weather reports, monitor road conditions both on- and off-campus, and consult with other appropriate local officials to determine whether schedule changes are necessary.

Decisions to delay or cancel on-campus activities or delay the opening of campus are typically announced by 6 a.m. on weekdays. If weather conditions change after the initial decision is announced, as much notice as possible will be given if it becomes necessary to make additional schedule alterations. Decisions to cancel on-campus evening classes (beginning at 5 p.m. or after) are typically announced by 3 p.m.

Conditions on and around the Meredith campus are a major consideration in determining hours of operation during inclement weather. However, as a campus community that employs faculty and staff throughout the greater Raleigh/Research Triangle Park area and serves a growing population of graduate and undergraduate commuter students, the College recognizes that members of the campus community may live in areas that are affected differently by adverse weather.

Decisions about whether to come to campus are always best made by individual faculty, staff and students. Professors and supervisors are encouraged to keep these factors in mind during inclement weather. Students are responsible for knowing attendance policies for each class and for communicating any unique circumstances to their professors.
