Due West received significant snowfall on Saturday, January 31. Extremely low temperatures Saturday night and Sunday night will likely create icy conditions on surrounding roads. Because the safety of our students and staff is our top priority, classes have been canceled for Monday, and staff members should plan to work remotely. Moffatt Dining Hall remains open and is serving meals on a modified schedule. Classes and in-person work will resume on Tuesday.
