Dear students, faculty and staff,

With updated forecasts now calling for snow to persist and travel conditions to deteriorate in our part of Northeast Wisconsin, I make the following announcements to members of the UW-Green Bay community:

• All classes that either begin or end after 3:35 p.m. today (Wednesday, March 23) are canceled. As of now, our regular class schedule is expected to resume Thursday morning.
• University employees already on campus are encouraged to leave early if they are concerned that travel to their homes would be less safe later this afternoon or evening.

Thomas K. Harden

Chancellor, UW-Green Bay

This is a test of the GB Alert Voice Message and emergency live and test websites.

Already broadcast campus-wide to students, faculty and staff and repeated here:

The Counseling and Health Center notes the CDC is recommending persons get vaccinated against the seasonal flu and H1N1 flu. The Center will have Seasonal flu vaccines (first injection) available: Thursday afternoon, Sept. 24, 12:30-4 p.m., and Friday, Sept. 25, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., or until the vaccine runs out. The vaccine is available on a first-come, first-served. You will need to bring your University ID and $ 15 if you’re a student or $20 if you’re an employee in the form of cash, check or PassPoints.
