The university will be closed Dec. 25 through Jan. 1, but the Cornell University Police Department and the Public Safety Communication Center will be open, providing services to anyone who needs assistance. There will be minimal snow and ice removal and some areas of campus do not receive any winter maintenance. Check with TCAT for service changes as we head into break. If you leave a car on campus, be sure to park in designated areas. Remember to take steps to conserve energy while you enjoy a well-deserved break!

Wherever you spend your time off, prepare to do so as safely as possible. I wish you an enjoyable and relaxing break. I will return in 2024!
