Inclement Weather, Emergencies, & Special Event Operations
“Inclement Weather” means the existence of extreme climatic conditions (i.e., unusually
heavy rain, hail, snow, ice, high winds, extreme cold, or the like, or any combination
thereof) substantially increasing the risk or difficulty of travel.
“Emergency” means situations that pose an immediate risk to health, life, property,
or environment relative to institutional work sites.
Pat Walker Health Center's Inclement Weather, Emergencies, and Special Events Policy:
Should the University of Arkansas delay its opening due to inclement weather or an emergency, the Pat Walker Health Center will also delay opening (adjust clinic hours) until the University opens for normal on-campus operations. Should the campus have an "early dismissal", the Pat Walker Health Center will evaluate patients/clients currently on site and complete care as appropriate. Patients remaining on the schedule for medical visits will be contacted by nursing personnel to reschedule. Lastly, should the campus decide to shift to a full day of Inclement Weather/Emergency Operations, the Pat Walker Health Center will assess currently scheduled appointments and where appropriate, offer telehealth services. You can find more information on university procedures here.
University's Inclement Weather Policy:
Please read the policy on inclement weather and the weather emergency procedure, which clearly define how such events impact the campus community.
