Please use extreme caution as you walk and drive on campus. If you are outdoors, we encourage you to follow these guidelines in order to remain safe:

- Dress properly by wearing at least three layers of loose-fitting clothing, insulated gloves and boots, and a hat
- Monitor your physical condition
- Stay as dry as possible and bring extra clothes
- Take frequent breaks in warm, dry areas
- Drink warm liquids
If you are on campus and need assistance or medical attention, call University Police at 315-470-6667. Call 911 for emergencies off campus.
