The university is preparing for below freezing temperatures at the end of this week and into the weekend. A period of strong winds, along with low and very cold wind chill temperatures, are expected during this time. Facilities staff are actively taking measures to help protect university buildings and its infrastructure from freeze ups, while continuing to provide a safe and comfortable environment.
Please support this effort by:
- Keeping windows locked shut and exterior doors closed
- Maintain area thermostats at normal operating temperatures to avoid burst pipes
- In lab spaces, close sashes on fume hoods not in use
To report frozen or burst pipes, please contact the Facilities Service Center at x4-2601 during normal business hours or Campus Police at x4-2398 after 5 p.m. and on weekends.
