Main campus closure extended through Friday morning

Clemson University's main campus will close, and classes will be cancelled on Friday morning due to anticipated severe weather caused by Hurricane Helene.

Pickens County government announced its offices will open at noon on Friday, Sept. 27. Per South Carolina policy, when inclement weather occurs in South Carolina, state government offices and their employees/student workers will follow the same weather hazard decisions made by county government officials where the state offices are located.

Oconee and Anderson County governments have announced closures for all day Friday, therefore Clemson locations in those counties will be closed.

All other statewide locations should follow the same hazard decisions made by the county government where their office is located. A full list of delays and closings is always available on the South Carolina Emergency Management Division website.

ACADEMICS
Friday morning classes prior to noon are cancelled. For Thursday evening and Friday afternoon, instructors have the option to decide between e-Learning or cancelling class. Instructors should clearly communicate this decision. For e-Learning, instructors must provide students options to make-up any missed activities. Personal safety is a priority for both students and instructors.

TIMEKEEPING AND LEAVE GUIDANCE
For faculty, staff and student workers, your supervisor is your first point of contact regarding expectations for work during a hazardous weather event. Review HR's employee timekeeping and leave during hazardous weather guidance for more information.

TRANSPORTATION
CATBus and transit updates can be found on the Parking and Transportation website and on Facebook.

ATHLETICS
The kickoff time for Saturday's football game against Stanford remains scheduled for 7 p.m. Information on adjustments to student wristband distribution will be communicated directly from the athletics ticket office.

In response to the needs throughout the state, South Carolina Highway Patrol may deploy additional personnel to affected regions. Fans traveling to Clemson are asked to be patient and plan for possible extended time getting into and out of town on Saturday.
