In the event of a College closing due to a weather emergency, students should monitor SUSLA’s website for further instructions, as well as monitor local television and radio stations for updated news and information regarding College re-openings. Should any student in good conscience decide to leave prior to the official cancellation of classes, the student is responsible for making provisions for missed classes and assignments with his or her instructors directly.

Once registered, students will receive a text message, phone call and email if the College is closing because of inclement weather or an emergency.
