In cases of severe weather, the college may opt to shut down or postpone operations before 7:00 AM. Official updates will broadcast across WLOS TV, Fox TV, and Clear Channel Radio. Additional notifications will include a voice announcement via the main phone line (828-669-8011), a notice on the college website ([SITEURL]), and direct emails to faculty, staff, and students outlining the day's status. When classes begin with a two-hour delay, the revised academic timetable adjusts as follows:
