In light of Monday’s weather forecast, students and professors are already taking precautions on campus.
A wintry mix is called for on Monday, beginning at 3 a.m. TV meteorologists have been forecasting for days that Nashville has a 100 percent chance of heavy snow falling by 8 a.m.
Lipscomb’s class schedule disruption policy states that the university will not cancel classes or close offices except during rare weather-related instances. Should an event that causes disruption of the entire campus occur, students will be notified via Bison Alert.
The cancellation of classes is left up to instructors. “Instructors are responsible to see that the learning goals of the class are not compromised by any missed class days,” Lipscomb’s class schedule disruption policy states.
Professors are encouraged to hold phone or Skype calls, or use teaching alternatives like Blackboard, Tegrity or video podcasts to conduct class.
