Dear Members of the Campus Community:

The National Weather Service (NWS) is predicting snow and severe winter weather for the New York City area beginning Wednesday, December 16, and extending through Thursday, December 17. All personnel are asked to be prepared for heavy snowfall and to use extreme caution during the storm. Based upon the NWS forecast, Fordham will make the following changes to on-campus operations:

Since classes and examinations are currently being held remotely, the storm will not affect their scheduling.

While there is no indoor dining permitted in New York City, the Rose Hill Marketplace is open for takeout orders between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. for breakfast; 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. for lunch; and 5 to 7:30 p.m. for dinner; and for pre-packaged grab-and-go service between 7 a.m. and 7:30 p.m.
