Winter Preparations

Facilities Services asks that all students, faculty and staff be properly prepared for winter driving and walking. Please wear proper winter footwear with good traction soles. Most falls on campus are due to improper winter footwear.

If you are driving to and from campus and around on campus, please have the proper snow and ice traction tires on your vehicle. Most vehicle incidents during the winter are due to improper tires on the vehicle involved. It is not possible to have all streets, roads, sidewalks and stairs free of snow and ice at all times. Primary responsibility for personal safety resides with the individual.

Please prepare now, winter is almost here!

Thank you.
