Due to current inclement and forecasted weather conditions, physical access to Morgan State University’s campus will be closed on Monday, Feb. 1, according to a university announcement. All students scheduled for an instructional day will meet remotely, and all online classes will continue as planned.

Teleworkers are expected to prepare to work from home and essential employees must report as directed by their supervisors.

Although the university aims to welcome nearly 1,000 students and approximately 43 instructors on campus for the spring, virtual learning will kick start the first day of the spring semester.
