15.3 Severe Weather Alerts

University of Northwestern - St. Paul relies on Roseville/Arden Hills severe Weather Alert System to determine when we are to take precautionary action due to severe weather. If you hear the weather siren outside the building, it is signaling severe weather and you should stay in the building. Severe weather alerts include severe thunderstorm warning, tornado watch, tornado warning or winter storm warning. Students will be notified in the event of a weather alert so proper life safety precautions can be taken.    

Inclement weather is not considered an “Excused Absence” for clinical attendance; however, in extreme or unsafe travel conditions, the student must contact the clinical faculty for further instructions.
