Campus operations on Nov. 29 – for students

Dear Huskies–

The National Weather Service forecast calls for a winter storm watch tomorrow. Snow is expected to start accumulating on the streets by 3 p.m. The projected amount of snow accumulation is 4" to 8". The Snohomish/King County border is expected to receive the most impact.

The safety of our campus community is paramount, so in light of this information we will suspend UW Bothell/Cascadia College campus operations at 1 p.m. tomorrow, Nov. 29. If you have classes that begin after 1 p.m., your faculty will make arrangements for how class will be conducted. If you have any questions, please contact your professor.

We understand that the forecast can be different in 12 hours and believe that this decision now will keep our community as safe as possible while also allowing ample time to plan ahead in the event the forecast plays out.

We will continue to monitor the conditions and will provide an update about Wednesday’s schedule tomorrow by 6 p.m.

Sincerely,
Tim Wilson, Ph.D.Dean of Student AffairsUniversity of Washington Bothell
