Weekend of Feb. 21–22

We look forward to welcoming students and families to our Scholarship Competition on Sunday. The event will take place as scheduled. Attendees, please refer to your email for the complete itinerary and additional information.

Due to the upcoming high-impact winter storm, UHart will be closed on Monday, Feb. 23. There will be no in-person classes held on Monday. Please note that when a campus closing prevents an in-person class from meeting at its scheduled time, faculty may opt to conduct classes or provide assignments online. Students should check Blackboard and their email regularly on such days to learn of any alternate arrangements. Online and remote courses are not affected by campus closings and meet as scheduled.
