Campus Safety
Campus Closing and Emergency Notification
If inclement weather makes travel too dangerous, notice of cancellation of classes will be released by the college administration. During those times, students are asked to exercise good judgment when deciding whether or not to travel. Classes will meet as scheduled unless local radio and TV stations announce that the college is closed. The decision will be made as soon as possible but no later than 6:30 a.m. in order to convey the message to the media and through mass notification alerts. The decision may involve closing campuses for all or part of the day. You can also call the Emergency Closing Hotline at (920) 735-4700 or 1-800-211-6409.
If you wish to receive alerts through additional e-mail accounts or text messages to your personal cell phone, visit www.fvtc.edu/ABOUT-US/FVTC-POLICIES/Emergency-Alert-Sign-Up. Standard text messaging rates will apply.
