<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">UNMC, as a health sciences center, has a number of activities that must be kept operational regardless of the weather conditions. These include activities that directly and indirectly support patient care at the hospital and clinics, as well as many research and educational functions. Because so many employees must report, regardless of the weather, the determination has been made for the entire campus to be considered open and operational, even when other University of Nebraska campuses and area businesses may be closed.

<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">Divisions on other University of Nebraska campuses (i.e., Lincoln, Kearney) will comply with the directions of the Chancellors of those campuses regarding weather related closing. Divisions located on community college campuses (i.e., Norfolk, Scottsbluff), will follow the directions of the community college leaders for weather related closings.<br /><br />There may be times when a decision must be made by individual faculty about classes or clinical experiences '''when there is no official cancellation'''. In this event, College of Nursing faculty members must make a judgment regarding having class or clinical experience at this time. In making decisions about class and clinical, faculty should consider that maintaining safety of all is a priority. | <li style="margin-bottom:15px;">Divisions on other University of Nebraska campuses (i.e., Lincoln, Kearney) will comply with the directions of the Chancellors of those campuses regarding weather related closing.
