TWU's Bad Weather Information
Winter is nearly here and so is the possibility of a campus closing due to weather. Official campus closing information will be posted on the Bad Weather Information phone lines for each campus.
Denton.....940-898-3430
Dallas.......214-689-6631
Houston...713-794-2310
Please do not rely on the television or radio for TWU campus closing information.
Campus closings are posted on the Bad Weather Information line within a half hour of a decision to close. So, you don't have to wait until 8 a.m. to call and see if your campus is closed. If the message on the Bad Weather Information line doesn't state the campus is closed, then the campus is open.
Please share these numbers with your students. They also are encouraged to call the numbers for campus closing information.Commuter Services Webpage Survey!
