Academic Divisions

The weather was questionable in some areas but the college did not close.  How do I handle students that were not able to come to class?  Does the college have a policy?

Since the College serves a large geographic area, students are expected to exercise their own judgment when hazardous conditions exist in their own areas. In the event that a student must miss a class for weather-related or emergency conditions, the student is obligated to notify the instructor as soon as possible and arrange for appropriate make-up work. 

When severe weather or emergencies (snow, ice, flooding, power failures) require the College to be closed, notification will be made through announcements by the greeting message on the College main telephone number (540-234-9261) and by local radio and television stations.   There is also a notice posted on the college web site at:   http://community.brcc.edu/emergency/.
