Notice of Office Closings and Class Cancellations

Campus Information Services (CIS) will play a primary role in disseminating emergency information to the University Community, including announcing office closings and class cancellations. CIS' dissemination tools include:

  • University Operating Status Page: This web site will include information on office closings, class cancellations, bus schedules, parking lot availability, and dining hall and recreation/student center hours. Rutgers' main website, rutgers.edu, will maintain links to the University Operating Status Page. This page will maintain a link to the Newark and Camden campuses home pages.
  • 732-932-info: RU.info includes a 24-hour voice mail announcement system. Please note that this replaces University Relations' emergency telephone line (732-932-7799).
  • RU.info Channel: Channel 3 on the New Brunswick/Piscataway campus, or available online at rutv.rutgers.edu/infochannel.html.
  • Emergency Communication Listserv: This listserv is designed to be a supplement to existing phone chains and is distributed to vice presidents, deans, directors, faculty, and administrative assistants on the New Brunswick/Piscataway campus.

In addition, the following radio and television stations will announce class cancellations, delayed openings, and early closings at New Brunswick/Piscataway and Newark on their School Closings lists. Please note that these announcements are for classes only and DO NOT refer to office closings, and that they will not include specific times.
