Severe weather conditions or damage resulting from fire, earthquake, or other disasters may require the college to close. The President or her designee is responsible for making the decision to cancel classes and/or close all college offices.

If the conditions develop on a weekday evening and a decision is made to close the campus, the evening administrator on main campus and the evening coordinator at off campus sites will be notified and will inform faculty, staff, and students present at that time. Off-campus notifications will begin.

If the conditions develop overnight or over a weekend, the President or designee will notify senior administrative staff as soon as possible before 10:00 p.m. or after 5:00 a.m. if the college is closed,
