• Winter Weather Updates

    Based on updated reports regarding road conditions across our region, Lenoir-Rhyne will operate as follows on Wednesday, Jan. 28:

    • Hickory and Asheville locations: Remote work and remote instruction
    • Columbia location: Normal operations

    This decision is being made out of an abundance of caution to prioritize the safety of our campus community, particularly as road conditions may vary significantly by location and throughout the day.

    Important reminders:

    • Students: Continue to check Canvas and email for updates and instructions from your instructors.
    • Faculty and staff: Communicate with your supervisors as needed and remain flexible as we navigate these conditions together.

    Next update:
    An update on Thursday’s operations will be communicated by 5 p.m. on Wednesday.
