Due to the snow storm impacting the Cambridge/Boston area, Harvard University will curtail operations beginning at 2pm today and ask all non-essential personnel to remain home tomorrow. Modified schedules and staffing plans will vary across the Schools and departments, so please look for more specific information from your local leaders.

The snowfall is expected to increase in intensity later today and remain heavy overnight, and the Cambridge/Boston area may receive up to 12 inches. We will continue to closely monitor the forecast. Should weather conditions warrant further schedule changes, we will distribute information through MessageMe and email. Updates will also be posted to the Harvard Emergency page and 866-496-NEWS.

Employees with a Harvard ID card may park for free tomorrow near the Cambridge/Allston campus in either the 52 Oxford Street garage or the Soldiers Field Park garage at 111 Western Avenue.
