Emergency Closing Policy
It is the policy of Clarion University to maintain services on a normal basis throughout the year. In some instances emergencies arise which require the university to determine if it is prudent and reasonable to offer classes or require employees to report to work. Since the university is a residential campus, special consideration will always be given to the fact that a majority of students live on or in close proximity to the campus. This always requires that the university be certain that regular services, outside of classroom instruction, are provided for resident students in the event of an emergency.
If classes are canceled, the following radio and television stations are notified.

Hazard Mitigation Plan
As a result of a grant received by the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, all member institutions including Clarion University must formulate a hazard mitigation plan. The need for such a plan was prompted by the many natural and human-caused disasters in the U.S. over the past several years.
Hazard mitigation is a phrase that describes actions taken to prevent or reduce the long-term risks to life and property from hazards. Pre-disaster mitigation actions are taken in advance of a hazard event and are essential to breaking the typical disaster cycle of damage, reconstruction, and repeated damage. With careful selection, mitigation actions can be long-term, cost-effective means of reducing the risk of loss.
