What happens if MCC "closes" due to weather or other emergencies?

Dear Student,

If MCC needs to cancel classes or close due to hazardous weather conditions or other emergency circumstance, please be aware of the following:

  • Face-to-face and remote classes will be canceled.
  • Online classes will proceed on schedule.
    • If you are an online student who faces a Wi-Fi or power issues due to weather-related conditions, please contact your professor. Accommodations will be made at the discretion of your professor. 
  • All virtual and in-person events and meetings at the Applied Technologies Center, Brighton Campus, Downtown Campus, and MCC career-technical sites for that day will be canceled.
  • The Public Safety Training Facility will remain open at the discretion of Dean Michael Karnes.
  • Classes will also be canceled at off-campus locations such as for clinical placements (e.g., health care programs) and internships. 
  • The Guon Child Care Center on the Brighton Campus may remain open at the discretion of the MCC Association.

Please note that changes in RTS bus schedules may impact your travel plans.

If classes are canceled or if the college closes, a notification will be sent to your MCC email via the MCC Alert system, posted on MCC’s website (www.monroecc.edu), and shared via MCC social media channels. Closings are also shared with local news media.

Based on your preferences and contact information maintained within the MCC Alert system, text and phone call notifications may also be sent to your phone. You may update your preferences online.

Thank you for your cooperation.
