Omnibus series lecture at PFW canceled; Campus closing today at 4:30 p.m.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. — Tonight’s Omnibus Speaker Series lecture by Michael Steele at Purdue University Fort Wayne, and his afternoon media availability, have been canceled due to the likelihood of hazardous travel conditions across the region later today and throughout the evening hours. In addition, the Purdue Fort Wayne campus (including IU Fort Wayne) will be closing at 4:30 p.m.

All other on-campus events and activities after 4:30 p.m. are also canceled.

A closed campus does not necessarily mean classes are canceled or that assignments and tests are postponed. All classes capable of meeting online or scheduled to meet online are expected to continue uninterrupted. Students are encouraged to review class policies with their instructor and track the status of their classes in Brightspace or Canvas.

Unless otherwise announced, the campus will return to normal operations Friday (Feb. 18) and conduct business as usual.
