Emory University Opening Later Thursday

Inclement weather is expected to continue to assault Decatur and the nearby Emory campus on Thursday.

Emory University students with early classes will get a chance to sleep in on Thursday.

The university has decided to delay its opening until 11 a.m. in light of the predicted inclement weather heading towards DeKalb County on Thursday, spokeswoman Beverly Cox Clark told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Decatur students who are not college-aged yet will have the whole day off on Thursday.
