Extreme adverse weather conditions, such as ice and/or snow, may require Cumberland University to close.  Every attempt will be made to notify area radio and television stations as soon as classes are cancelled, and students are encouraged to registrar for the institutional text message inclement weather notification system.  If on-campus classes do not meet, courses offered at the alternative delivery sites in Nashville-Davidson County will also be called-off.  Individual faculty teaching in off-campus locations may cancel/dismiss a class session due to travel concerns.  Students are expected to exercise discretion regarding personal safety whether the University is open or closed.
