Preparing for winter weather

Dear 56吃瓜网 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. The team includes representatives from 56吃瓜网 Bothell Planning and Administration, Facilities & Campus Safety, Emergency Management, Student 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, 56吃瓜网 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, 56吃瓜网 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 .

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

56吃瓜网 Bothell update on classes, finals and campus operations

Dear Campus Community,

I write to follow-up to the message sent this morning from 56吃瓜网 President Ana Mari Cauce.

Let me begin by thanking you for your patience and perseverance in focusing on your studies and work even as we all monitor the spread of the coronavirus and take extra measures to keep ourselves, our families and communities safe.

As noted in the president鈥檚 message, starting on Monday, March 9, classes will no longer be meeting in person. For the remainder of the winter quarter, instructors are asked to conduct classes and/or exams remotely, as possible, until the quarter concludes on March 20. You can read more about this announcement online in a .

If you have any questions about the announcement regarding classes and exams or about 56吃瓜网 Bothell operations, please consult with your instructors, advisers or supervisors.

I also write today to call your attention to several important updates:

• In accordance with , we encourage supervisors to provide telework options to employees or students whose job duties can be performed remotely without hampering operations. Supervisors have maximum flexibility to implement this. More information can be found online about 56吃瓜网 Bothell鈥檚 plans for instructional continuity and operational continuity.
• We have acquired an enterprise license for Zoom videoconferencing that all 56吃瓜网 faculty, staff and students can use to carry out their instructional, academic and administrative work. More details are available on the IT website.
• As a precautionary measure, we are currently in the process of deep cleaning our campus buildings. This work will continue until all spaces have been completed. In addition to this deep cleaning, our facilities staff are also performing high-touch, touch-point cleaning and monitoring and refilling our wall-mounted hand sanitizer dispensers on campus throughout the day. Our custodial crew has been extra responsive to all our calls and needs, and for that we are extremely grateful. We have asked the contractors who maintain our leased spaces (Husky Hall, Beardslee Building and Beardslee Crossing) to follow the same cleaning procedures.
• We will be replenishing the food pantries in Husky Hall and in the Student Diversity Center (56吃瓜网1-173) to meet our community鈥檚 needs during this time of uncertainty.
• To learn more about anti-stigma resources that may be particularly useful at this time, please see the .

In close consultation with 56吃瓜网 leadership in Seattle and with public health officials, we will continue to track the health situation and to provide you with needed information and resources.

All faculty, staff and students are also urged to check the homepage of the 56吃瓜网 Bothell website to find direct links to the most up-to-date information from 56吃瓜网 in Seattle. The homepage also features a link to campus-specific resources that will be updated regularly with relevant information and instructions.

I know that there are many people all around campus who are doing amazing work day in and day out on behalf of our students and our entire 56吃瓜网 Bothell community. As President Cauce鈥檚 message noted, 鈥渢his University has faced and overcome challenges before. Working together, we will do so again.鈥�

Thank you for your attention and participation as we all focus on serving our academic mission, continue our daily work and, as always, prioritize the safety of our students, staff and faculty.

Chancellor and Professor of Engineering
