Inclement Weather Policy

Cancellation or Delay of Classes

Generally, scheduled classes will be held during inclement weather unless one or more of the following conditions exists:

1. Hazardous driving conditions exist in the County that would cause a large percentage of the College student body to be absent.
   
   
2. The College is unable to clear the drives and parking lots in time to accommodate normal requirements.
3. Weather projections are such that it is likely (a) or (b) will occur prior to the end of the daily College schedule.

Announcements of a delay in opening or cancellation of classes will be announced on the College website www.sunyjefferson.edu and on local television and radio stations. You may also call the campus weather information line at (315)786-6565 for up-to-date information on weather-related delays or cancellations. Please do not call the switchboard for information. Too many calls make it impossible to respond to emergency calls.

Cancellation or Delay of Morning Classes

When a delayed opening is announced, classes will commence on that day with the 10:10 a.m. class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; and the 9:30 a.m. class on Tuesday and Thursday.

Class Make-Up Requirements

1. Individual Class Cancellations: The College expects that classes canceled on an individual basis because of faculty illness, faculty attending conferences, etc., as well as cancellation because of inclement weather, will be made up. Thus, any classes that are canceled by an individual faculty member will be rescheduled by arrangement between that faculty member and the class.
   
   
2. Campus-Wide Cancellation of Classes: Since the time at which closings occur (or, in the case of delayed openings, classes begin) during an academic semester is critical to the appropriate time for make-up, the College President, the President of the Faculty Association, the President of the Student Government Association, and the Chairman of the Board of Trustees will be responsible for identifying the method of make-up for any campus-wide closing.
   
   
3. Individual Student Absences: It is recognized that during inclement weather conditions some students may encounter localized hazardous driving conditions even though classes are being held as scheduled. Absences from class for this reason are legitimate and acceptable. Students will be held responsible for any work missed, as is the case for any other excused absence, and they are encouraged to consult with their instructors or their classmates as soon after their return to classes as possible in order to make up such work.

Closing of College Offices

In general, when classes are delayed or canceled, administrative officers, non-teaching professionals and support staff will be expected to report for their normal work schedule. They should use individual judgment regarding the driving conditions and any absences will be charged against vacation, personal leave or accumulated overtime. If an unusual emergency exists, radio announcements will clearly state that classes are canceled, as well as offices being closed. Employees providing "critical" services are expected to be at work according to established procedure or to notify their supervisor of their inability to report to work. When the offices are officially closed,there will be no charge to employees for work time lost.
