Campus Closures

Severe weather

If it becomes necessary to change campus operating schedules due to weather or other conditions, we will utilize the PSUAlert system and local media to notify staff, faculty, and students. For severe weather overnight, the announcement to cancel or delay the start of classes will be made at approximately 6 a.m.

Note:  If the campus is closed, all credit, non-credit, and activities are canceled.

PSUAlert

PSUAlert is Penn State's emergency notification system for students, faculty, and staff. The system will be used to alert members of Penn State Shenango's campus community of emergencies, campus closings, and other urgent information. Register for PSUAlert

Types of closures

Delayed start

If road conditions are hazardous only in the early morning hours, classes will begin at a specified time.  Example:  If there is a delayed start, it could be communicated that classes would begin at 10:00 a.m.  Employees should report to work at their regular scheduled time. However, staff should use sound judgment and caution when reporting to work and contact their supervisor if their schedule needs to be altered.

Classes canceled

All classes have been canceled for the day and evening.  Employees should report to work at their regular scheduled time. However, staff should use sound judgment and caution when reporting to work and contact their supervisor if their schedule needs to be altered.

Campus closed

All classes have been canceled for the day and evening.  Employees should not report to work.  Employees designated as Essential Services may be required to report to work.
