Remember that if school is closed for bad weather, all stu‐
dents are responsible for keeping up with assignments on
Blackboard. Just because the school is closed doesn’t mean
there aren’t assignments due for class.
Also, you should update your contact informaon
on Eagle Alert at my.unt.edu. When UNT is
closed for bad weather, Eagle Alert will send you
an email, a text message, or a phone call before
you leave for class. If you sign up for Eagle Alert,
you will
know
immediately
when
UNT
is closed
for
bad weather and you won’t have to travel to campus.
