Emergency Alert
UDC Operating Remotely on Friday, Jan. 30

The University of the District of Columbia’s academic and administrative offices will conduct business remotely on Friday, Jan. 30. All on-campus activities, including athletic-related activities, are cancelled.

Campuses will reopen on Monday, Feb. 2.

Staff: Contact your immediate supervisor with questions or for further instruction regarding remote work expectations. 

Faculty: Reach out to your immediate supervisor and/or the dean for questions and further instruction regarding the transition to emergency remote instruction (ERI).  The Center for the Advancement of Learning (CAL) is available to support faculty with instructional continuity, including support for Blackboard, Zoom, Webex and other teaching and learning technologies.

Consultation Request Form

For learning technology tools and on-demand faculty resources, please visit CAL’s website.

Students: Due to inclement weather, the university will be closed to face-to-face operations. Instruction will be moved to emergency remote, including synchronous and asynchronous methods. Certain laboratory, clinical, and other hands-on classes for which in-person instruction is a requirement may necessitate a make-up lesson, but every effort will be made to pursue virtual learning to the extent possible. Where synchronous virtual instruction is intended, published class meeting times must be observed so that students’ schedules are not disrupted.

The safety and security of our students, faculty, staff, and the broader community remain our top priority. We will continue to provide updates regarding the status of the university’s academic and administrative offices as conditions change.

Please continue to check our website and social media channels for the latest information.

If you have any safety concerns, contact OPSEM at 202-274-5050. For all immediate emergencies, call 911.

Thank you for your continued dedication to our students and to UDC’s mission.

College of Arts and Sciences Brings 'Something for Everyone' to UDC Research Week

Research Week 2025 logoThe College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) will take center stage on Thursday, April 3, as part of UDC’s Research Week 2025, hosting a full day of presentations, posters and workshops that highlight its bold, community-minded scholarship. Guided by this year’s theme, The Promise of Research from UDC, CAS faculty and students will present work that not only advances disciplinary knowledge but also speaks to the needs of the District and the lived realities of its residents. 

“The CAS community is made up of bright and passionate change agents,” says Dean Jeffery Fleming. “Research conducted by our students and faculty focuses on pressing local and global issues, and the presentations submitted for Research Week 2025 once again seek to offer innovative solutions that can enhance the lives of District residents and the broader community.”
