Current Cancellations/Changes/Announcements

Last update: Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026, 10:15 a.m.

Tuesday, Jan. 27 - Kutztown University will open at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026. Classes normally in progress at 11 a.m. will begin at that time and conclude at their normal time. Classes that begin and conclude by 11 a.m. will not be held. Employees should report at 11 a.m.; Essential employees must report at regular time unless otherwise directed.

Due to the snow closure/delay this week, we will be adding two additional days to drop/add for classes. This means that drop/add will continue until Feb. 4 (note corrected date).

The dates for faculty to verify student attendance and/or participation will now be Feb. 6 to Feb. 13.  Students should be certain that they are actively participating in all classes by that period, so that they are marked as being active for financial aid purposes, as well as for their own success.

Note that the semester still began today - Monday, Jan. 26. Instructional time for missed classes due to weather will be made up in a mode selected by the faculty member that best suits the course. Students should be sure that they are checking their campus emails, as well as D2L for further information regarding that replacement of learning activity.

Faculty are reminded that the recently revised inclement weather policy can be found in the recent Provost’s update, as well as in the faculty handbook.

Parking Advisory - Facilities crews continue to clear parking lots of snow. To allow ease of parking, students, faculty and staff are permitted to park in any white or yellow-lined space today only, Tuesday, Jan. 27.  

Vehicles must still park in identified spots and are not permitted to park in handicapped or green-lined visitor spaces (unless authorized).

Resident students are now permitted to return their cars to their assigned lot.

Thanks for your cooperation.
