In-person classes are canceled Tuesday because of snowfall, according to an email to students and faculty Monday.

Chancellor Sheri Everts said faculty should utilize online or course “winterization” options as Boone experiences approximately 15.6 inches of snow.

Adverse Weather Condition 2 is extended for non-faculty employees until 7 a.m. Wednesday. The Adverse Weather Policy at Condition 2 for non-faculty employees means:

Non-mandatory employees should not report to work.
Non-mandatory employees may work from home if productive work that can be performed remotely is available upon approval of supervisors.
Mandatory employees are expected to report to and or remain at work.
Adverse weather leave options apply to time missed by non-mandatory employees due to adverse conditions.

According to the email, non-faculty employees can visit appstatealert.com for further information and contact their supervisor with any questions.

AppalCart closed Sunday and Monday due to inclement weather and has not yet released information regarding Tuesday’s schedule. AppalCart schedules and updates are posted on www.appalcart.com or can be accessed by downloading the TransLoc mobile app.

For snow removal crews to effectively remove snow and ice from surface parking lots, vehicles must be parked in a covered parking area and remain parked. Parking in covered areas is free of charge until 7 a.m. Tuesday. Parking and Transportation may provide additional information.

Our Goal

We hope you appreciate this article! Before you move on, our student staff wanted to ask if you would consider supporting The Appalachian's award-winning journalism. We are celebrating our 90th anniversary of The Appalachian in 2024!

We receive funding from the university, which helps us to compensate our students for the work they do for The Appalachian. However, the bulk of our operational expenses — from printing and website hosting to training and entering our work into competitions — is dependent upon advertising revenue and donations. We cannot exist without the financial and educational support of our fellow departments on campus, our local and regional businesses, and donations of money and time from alumni, parents, subscribers and friends.

Our journalism is produced to serve the public interest, both on campus and within the community. From anywhere in the world, readers can access our paywall-free journalism, through our website, through our email newsletter, and through our social media channels. Our supporters help to keep us editorially independent, user-friendly, and accessible to everyone.

If you can, please consider supporting us with a financial gift from $10. We appreciate your consideration and support of student journalism at Appalachian State University. If you prefer to make a tax-deductible donation, or if you would prefer to make a recurring monthly gift, please give to The Appalachian Student News Fund through the university here: https://securelb.imodules.com/s/1727/cg20/form.aspx?sid=1727&gid=2&pgid=392&cid=1011&dids=418.15&bledit=1&sort=1.
