P.K. Yonge Developmental Research School will close today, Tuesday, Jan. 21, at 6 p.m. and will remain closed all day Wednesday, and all P.K. Yonge campus and extracurricular activities are canceled.  The school will reopen on Thursday, Jan. 23.

Baby Gator will be closed all day Wednesday, Jan. 22.

University of Florida classes will resume at the start of the 12:50 p.m. period on Wednesday, Jan. 22. Students who require additional considerations regarding coursework, exams, or assignments should contact their instructors directly. Florida Fresh Dining will serve the campus community during the storm. Specific dining information can be found on its website.

Employees are expected to report to work at 12:30 p.m. Wednesday afternoon. Employees who anticipate childcare issues should contact their supervisors regarding remote work or taking leave. Additionally, employees who live in areas north of Gainesville that may be affected more severely by the winter weather and those who require additional consideration should contact their supervisors regarding remote work or taking leave.

UF Health clinical operations will continue on their normal schedule. More information will be shared with employees later today.

Employees who are considered essential or critical to campus operations should check with their supervisors regarding scheduling. UF/IFAS and other UF personnel outside of Alachua County should adhere to their county government closures and consult their supervisors. Other UF units throughout the state will have similar closings in keeping with their county government guidelines.
