Princeton University Closes Tuesday Due To Snowstorm

PRINCETON, NJ — Snow continues to fall fast and heavy in the Princeton area prompting Princeton University to close on Tuesday until 7 p.m. for non-essential personnel.

Classes will continue as scheduled. Faculty members who need to alter class plans should communicate with students via the Canvas app.

Only employees in essential services roles should report to work for shifts requiring them to work Tuesday, and they should park in either the either the Prospect Avenue, Theater Drive, or Stadium Drive garages.

Non-essential employees should not report to work. Unless otherwise instructed by your manager, when the University is officially closed to nonessential personnel due to a short term weather or other emergency, as a general rule nonessential personnel are not expected to work remotely. However, employees should expect that there may be emergent or continued business that requires some remote work during such closures. Employees must be attentive to departmental needs and expectations to complete work during times when the University is closed to nonessential personnel.

The University will resume normal operations at 7 p.m. this evening.
Here are some other updates:

• TigerTransit buses are operating with reduced service
• Athletics facilities will be closed until 7 p.m.
• Firestone Library will be open for reading room access only until 7 p.m.
• The Frist Campus Center is open and serving meals.
• Dining halls are open as scheduled.
