Preparing for winter weather

Dear UW Bothell community:

Even as we navigate the continuing effects of the pandemic, we must prepare for other hazards, such as winter weather. In the event of a weather or other emergency, a leadership team convenes quickly to determine the appropriate measures needed to keep the campus community safe and secure. 足彩app哪个是正规的 team includes representatives from UW Bothell Planning and Administration, Facilities & Campus Safety, Emergency Management, 足彩app哪个是正规的 Services and Marketing & Communications, as well as their counterparts from Cascadia College.

If our region experiences hazardous weather, the campus could suspend operations. If this happens, on-campus operations will be suspended, in-person instruction will be moved to remote instruction, and all campus buildings will be locked. However, all instruction and student services will continue to be offered remotely. Similarly, telework arrangements for staff will continue. Only essential employees whose work requires them to be physically present on campus should come to campus during suspended operations, observing appropriate care and safety measures.

This winter, UW Bothell and Cascadia College will have few students and personnel coming to campus. If a decision is made to suspend operations on campus, it is our intent to notify the campus community of this decision by 10 p.m. the night before.

From text and email alerts to our internal public address system, UW Bothell has a number of ways to notify the campus community about disruptions to our campus when they occur. Please take a moment now to sign up for our text and email alerts at uw.edu/alert.

Emergencies and closure information on or near campus will be communicated in a number of ways, including:

  • UW Alert (text and email messages)
  • Alertus desktop notification system (If you are connected to the UW network via the BIG-IP Edge Client, you will get alerts on your desktop even at home.)
  • UW Bothell website: www.uwb.edu
  • UW Bothell’s emergency blog: www.uwb.edu/emergency (足彩app哪个是正规的 blog is updated frequently when an incident on campus occurs.)
  • UW Bothell’s Facebook page: www.facebook.com/uwbothell

Please be advised that some areas of ice and slush remain in spots around campus, and people on campus are encouraged to be aware of the following:

  • Caution on walkways: To the extent possible, wear appropriate winter footwear, including waterproof boots and soles with proper tread. Many pathways have been cleared within normal walkways. Not all walkways are cleared from edge to edge, and some paths across open spaces are not entirely cleared. Pedestrians should look for cleared paths whenever possible, even if this isn’t the most direct path.
  • Trees and building overhangs: Please be aware that as the snow and ice melts off trees and rooftops, clumps of ice and snow can fall to the ground below, and tree branches can also fall. Please be aware of such areas and use caution.
  • Limited ADA accessibility: Crews have prioritized ADA accessibility around campus and near ADA-designated parking areas, however they may be impacted by the ongoing slush and ice. Attention will continue to be placed on these areas.
  • Parking lots and garages: Please use caution walking and driving in parking lots and garages. Some transitions from lots and garages onto roads remain slushy or icy in spots. Also use extra caution getting in and out of vehicles.
  • Caution entering and exiting buildings: Custodial crews will aim to keep entryways into buildings as dry as possible, but please assist in the effort by wiping shoes off upon entering buildings and be mindful to avoid bringing ice inside. Use caution on non-carpeted flooring near entrances and exits as floors may be slippery.
