Wake Forest’s Reynolda Campus is open; however, work continues on clearing accumulated ice and snow. Faculty, staff and students are asked to avoid coming to campus unless necessary so that Facilities can more easily remove snow and ice from parking lots and other common areas.
More information will be shared on campus conditions later this afternoon.
Campus service hours may be adjusted due to the weather. Check websites for updated hours of operation for campus dining, the Wellbeing Center, ZSR library, Deacon Health, Mail Services and WFU shuttle services.
