Cancellation of Classes


It is the general policy of the university not to cancel regularly scheduled classes because of inclement weather. In most cases, therefore, when emergencies occur that disrupt local transportation facilities or create personal problems, students and faculty members should make decisions about attendance that appear appropriate to them in their particular circumstances.

During severe weather conditions, announcements are made over Camden and Philadelphia radio stations. The decision to cancel classes is made by the Camden provost. If no announcements are made before 5:30 p.m. for evening classes, it can be assumed that classes are in session. The campus is not identified by name but by the following radio code numbers: 605 for daytime classes (8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.) and 2605 for evening classes (6:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.). Students may also check the campus webpage.

Arrangements for makeup work are announced by individual instructors.
