"SNOW DAYS"

Rarely, weather conditions will warrant closure of the University. In case of snow, you should listen to local radio and television stations for information about UNM, or you can call the UNM Snow Hotline at 277-SNOW to find out if classes have been cancelled, or have been put on a delay. In case of the latter, a “two-hour” delay, for example, means that the university will open at 10:00 a.m. instead of 8:00 a.m.; any classes scheduled to meet before 10:00 a.m. are in effect cancelled. In the event of a delay or closure during finals week, faculty are provided with three options to choose from:

• Faculty may assign as final grades, the current grades that students have going into final exam week.
• Faculty may make provisions for students whose exams are canceled to contact them for the scheduling of a makeup exam or alternative arrangements.
• Faculty may, as a last resort, choose to assign incomplete grades.
