University of Missouri operations for the MU campus and UM System offices will be closed on Friday, Jan. 24, due to continued severe winter weather. Additionally, Boone County emergency officials asked the public to stay off the roads today because of the difficult driving conditions.

All day and evening classes are canceled. At this time, university officials are planning to reopen campus at 12 a.m. on Saturday, Jan. 25. However, the university community is encouraged to regularly check official sources of university information, including MU Alert: MUAlert.Missouri.edu. Officials will announce any extension of the closure in the event road or campus conditions continue to be poor.

Links to information about how the closure will affect MU Health Care clinics, the Veterinary Health Center and other university services are posted online and will be updated as information is available.

Anyone traveling is encouraged to check road conditions through the Missouri Department of Transportation: https://traveler.modot.org/map/index.html
