Non-Credit Classes:

Cancellations of non-credit classes due to inclement weather or emergencies will be announced through the same channels as for credit classes. If the facility where the class is held is closed, the class will be canceled. For classes on the main College campus, cancellations will occur only if all evening classes are canceled.
