Dear Colleagues,

UMBC will be closed tomorrow, Tuesday, January 7, 2025, due to inclement weather. All in-person and remote (synchronous) classes will resume on Wednesday, January 8. Asynchronous online classes will occur as scheduled. 

Essential personnel should report to campus as scheduled. Non-essential employees will record the day as an administrative leave day. Today’s closure (January 6) will be reflected as an administrative leave day on timesheets, as well. Employees that worked on January 6 will have the flexibility to use an administrative leave day prior to March 31, 2025. Please coordinate this with your supervisor.

Please communicate with your immediate supervisor if you have any questions about whether to come to campus or if you need alternative accommodations due to weather conditions in your local area. UMBC’s Inclement Weather and Emergency Closing Guide will be updated in the coming days with additional guidance for the future.

Sincerely,

Manfred H. M. van Dulmen 

Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs
