Public Safety is tracking a significant snowfall that will be arriving in our area late Sunday morning (Jan. 25). It will snow heavily throughout the day and evening eventually tapering off Monday (Jan. 26) with 10-14 inches expected statewide. A sleet and freezing rain mix is also possible along the shore. Temperatures will be in the teens and twenties.
Due to this significant winter storm and the extensive campus clean-up operations that will need to take place, all in-person day and evening classes scheduled for Monday, January 26, 2026 have been cancelled. All scheduled in-person classes will transition to being held online or remotely. Additional information on the virtual format for each class will be provided by your instructor.
Faculty have been asked to prepare for Online or Remote sessions in the event of in-person meeting cancellations. These options will be determined by the Faculty member and all questions should be directed to the Faculty teaching each course section. Faculty also have been asked to be very understanding and accommodating of the individual situations of their students who may have difficulty managing these alternative online or remote class meetings on short notice.
Please note that only essential employees, as previously determined by their respective department leaders, should report to campus. All other employees should fulfill the requirements of their role remotely.
Campus operations for residential students, unless otherwise noted, will operate as scheduled, though hours may be modified or changed based on the conditions.

To raise awareness of social issues in the United States and in developing countries, a group of University of New Haven students are working to launch a nonprofit called "Unseen and Unspoken."
March 29, 2019
What began as a conversation between students about the issues that international students face has evolved into an idea on the verge of becoming a nonprofit organization that is endeavoring to make an impact worldwide.
"We initially wanted to create a club on campus," said Ketsia Kimpioka ’19, a business management major from Congo. "After submitting all the paperwork, we decided to take our idea a bit further and eventually create a nonprofit. I hope this can be an example to other students of what they can do if they take initiative."
Kimpioka along with Klerisa Kimca ’19 and Michaela Sullivan ’21 are navigating the process of establishing "Unseen and Unspoken," and they are applying for nonprofit status with the Internal Revenue Service. They have been getting support from their professors – and from each other.
"The organization brings together three students from different majors," said Kimca, an economics major from Albania. "I’m learning from their studies, and they are both learning from mine. We’re helping each other out."
"We want to raise awareness and spark conversations about things that aren’t usually discussed."Michaela Sullivan ’21
They are also learning how to plan their first event – an exhibition featuring art made by people with disabilities. They hope it will raise support for programs that benefit people with disabilities in developing countries.
The students envision "Unseen and Unspoken" providing a platform for discussion, eventually leading to solutions to social disparities and problems in the United States, Congo, Albania, and beyond.
"It’s almost like a TED Talk, a spreading ideas kind of organization," said Sullivan, a Scotch Plains, NJ, native who is studying forensic science. "We want to raise awareness and spark conversations about things that aren’t usually discussed."
