ÃÛÌÒ½´is monitoring weather conditions in North Texas. Any decision to close or delay opening Friday, Dec. 6, will be communicated by 6:30 a.m. Friday in the following ways:
- An e-mail message will be sent to all students, faculty and staff.
- A recorded message will be available at 214-SMU-INFO (214-768-4636). Please do not call the ÃÛÌÒ½´Police Department.
- Closing announcements will be posted on the ÃÛÌÒ½´homepage at , via SMU’s Twitter feed at and at

SMU’s goal is to maintain the normal operations and educational processes of the University while remaining sensitive to safety concerns. Therefore, if ÃÛÌÒ½´remains open, faculty, students and staff should report to their classrooms or offices as usual. If someone lives in an area that is affected by bad weather and feels that travel to campus would be an unreasonable safety risk, that individual should contact his or her supervisor or department head to discuss options, and students should contact their professors. For staff members, an absence when ÃÛÌÒ½´is officially open can be taken as vacation leave. Emergency service personnel are expected to report to work in any case to keep essential services and operations functioning.
If ÃÛÌÒ½´closes:
Dining Services on the main ÃÛÌÒ½´campus
Dining services will be available even when the University closes because of inclement weather. For information about hours of operation for ÃÛÌÒ½´Dining Services, please see:
