Students,

We are now in the throws of winter in the Tri-Cities. Please navigate to the following weblink below and get signed up for the CBC Campus Alert System. This way, you will get live, up-to-date information on campus closures and other emergency closures. This is for all of our safety, so please take advantage of this free tool.

CBC Campus Alert System Weblink: https://www.columbiabasin.edu/live/stay/campus-security-and-safety/inclement-weather.html

Also, if you have on campus courses this quarter, please make sure you are hyper vigilant about watching your Canvas course announcements. And any other communication channels from your professors in case they personally cancel or reschedule a class for any reason. The mode of communication will vary by the professor, but everyone should by week three of the quarter have all the communication preferences from professors. Please stay safe, and remember to reach out and communicate with your professors if you have any hesitation about driving in winter weather. This way, you can make a plan with your professors to ensure you are successfully moving forward with your academic journey at CBC.

Take care, be safe, and have a great winter quarter!

Kindly,

Dr. Mel
