7.4  Campus Closing   

During the regular session, the University officially closes for Thanksgiving and semester break holidays.   All buildings are locked, and there is no mail service.  When classes are not in session (such as during fall and spring break) services are curtailed—faculty should check for hours of service and on mail delivery.   Specific dates for these periods are included in the University calendar.

7.4.1  Inclement Weather Closing    If weather conditions or other emergency circumstances dictate the closing of the University, the decision to close will be announced as soon as possible through the University hotline (654-2424).  Notice will also be given to radio and television stations serving the Fredericksburg, Washington/Northern Virginia, and Richmond areas.  The radio stations usually broadcast the information more quickly.
