This applies to Stony Brook main campus and SB Southampton and includes the School of Medicine, School of Nursing, School of Health Professions, School of Social Welfare, and the Dental School. Students with clinical obligations should make every effort to attend rotations and contact their clinical coordinators with any questions or concerns.
All staff that are presently working remotely should continue to do so. All essential employees that have been reporting to campus and are required to do so during inclement weather emergencies should report according to their prescribed schedules and direct specific questions to their immediate supervisors or their designee.
Please note that only the Governor of New York State can close state offices, agencies, and campuses. When offices are open, all State and Research Foundation employees are expected to report to work. During emergencies non-essential employees may request supervisory approval to charge their accruals when offices are open. Essential employees must report in accordance with their schedules.
Please also note, University Hospital and the Long Island State Veterans Home employees are all deemed 'essential' and therefore must report to work. This also applies to employees designated as 'essential' in certain areas assigned to West Campus that deliver Health and related services.
