The Eugene campus is on regular schedule today, Wednesday, January 4th.

UO leadership understands that not everyone will be able to travel to campus during inclement weather, even if classes or activities are not cancelled.  Please use your best judgment in assessing the risk of coming to work and returning home, based on individual circumstances.  Those who believe the road conditions from home are dangerous are urged and even expected to stay home to prevent injury.
