University of Missouri officials announced that the university will resume regular operations beginning 12:01 a.m. Friday, Jan. 12. Officials warn faculty, students, staff and visitors to use caution while moving on campus as slick spots remain. Anyone driving to campus should plan ahead, leave early and allow plenty of time for travel.

Currently, roads and sidewalks have been treated, but slick spots remain.

“The campus is passable, but pedestrians and drivers should proceed cautiously on all pavements,” said Gary Ward, vice chancellor of operations.

This is the official University of Missouri emergency alert website. Whenever an emergency occurs that affects the university community, this website will be updated as quickly as possible with the most current, confirmed information. Please check here for official information. So that phone systems do not become overloaded, please do not call MUPD as they are working hard to confirm facts and maintain the safety of the campus. We are in touch with them as they work through the process and will update this website as quickly as information is received and confirmed.

Please do not distribute unconfirmed information or rumors or post or pass along rumors on social media outlets. Safety is the university’s top priority, and we are working hard to assure that the campus remains safe while information is obtained and confirmed.

Students, please call your parents to assure them that you are safe. Thank you.
