Severe Weather Emergency Alert System

When snow and other bad weather conditions require Kenyon to close offices or even cancel classes, employees need a way to find out. And emergency alert message service at Kenyon gives all employees an easy way to check.

The message service can be reached by calling 427-7007, where more than 100 simultaneous callers can listen to a recorded emergency alert message with status information about the college. When the decision is made to close campus offices or cancel classes, the Office of Campus Safety will update the message immediately. Calling this new number, you will get accurate information as soon as it is available and you won't have to call the switchboard. As always, if you are unsure whether you need to come to work in a particular situation, please consult with your supervisor.

If you have questions about Kenyon's employment policies associated with the closing of the college due to a weather emergency, please contact the Human Resources office. This policy is located here.
