<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">There may be times when due to rapid weather changes or other circumstances, a decision must be made by faculty about classes or clinical experiences '''when there is no official campus closing'''. In this event, College of Nursing faculty members must make a professional judgment regarding the wisdom of having class or clinical experiences at this time. If possible, they should consult with the appropriate Program Director, Assistant Dean, or the Associate Dean for Academic Programs in making the decision. Faculty members who decide to cancel classes or clinical experiences are responsible for notifying their students, the clinical area involved, Student Services office, the College of Nursing Dean’s Office, and '''arranging make-up of classes or clinical experience'''.</li> | <li style="margin-bottom:15px;">There may be times when due to rapid weather changes or other circumstances, a decision must be made by faculty about classes or clinical experiences '''when there is no official campus closing'''.
