With the National Weather Service forecasting temperatures as low as minus 12 degrees Fahrenheit on Wednesday and wind chill values as low as minus 35 degrees, Ohio Wesleyan University will be closed Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2019.

We also have canceled Wednesday's Butler A. Jones Lecture and are working to reschedule our screening and discussion of "The Central Park Five" with filmmaker and author Sarah Burns.

The University will reopen for classes Thursday and will run shuttles to transport students from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Winter safety tips and weather links are available online here.

If you see (or hear) burst water pipes or other urgent maintenance issues, please call the OWU Department of Public Safety immediately at 740-368-2222.
