SMU’s campus will remain closed on Wednesday, February 17, 2021, due to the impact of the severe weather and related power outages. All classes, in-person and virtual, are canceled. Only designated essential personnel should report to work on campus.
Please take care, and help one another stay warm and healthy. Once the weather and power outages are resolved, we will notify campus about the continuation of classes as well as make-up days that may be required.
