Staff: Contact your immediate supervisor with questions or for further instruction regarding remote work expectations.
Faculty: Reach out to your immediate supervisor and/or the dean for questions and further instruction regarding the transition to emergency remote instruction (ERI).

Virtual Office Hours
Consultation Request Form
For learning technology tools and on-demand faculty resources, please visit CAL’s website.
Students: Due to inclement weather, the university will be closed to face-to-face operations. Instruction will be moved to emergency remote, including synchronous and asynchronous methods. Certain laboratory, clinical, and other hands-on classes for which in-person instruction is a requirement may necessitate a make-up lesson, but every effort will be made to pursue virtual learning to the extent possible. Where synchronous virtual instruction is intended, published class meeting times must be observed so that students’ schedules are not disrupted.
The safety and security of our students, faculty, staff, and the broader community remain our top priority. We will continue to provide updates regarding the status of the university’s academic and administrative offices as conditions change.
Please continue to check our website and social media channels for the latest information.
If you have any safety concerns, contact OPSEM at 202-274-5050. For all immediate emergencies, call 911.
Thank you for your continued dedication to our students and to UDC’s mission.
The green roof installation and renovation of the greenhouse atop Building 44 creates a living laboratory in support of the College of Agriculture, Urban Sustainability, and Environmental Sciences, and adds approximately 20,000 square feet of green space to the Van Ness Campus.
The new production system not only allows UDC TV to offer its product digitally in HD to its cable providers (Comcast, RCN, and Verizon), but also to stream multiple channels in HD either on the UDC website, or a partner website via a streaming service.
The new Center includes a demonstration kitchen, 9 workstations, and a full service commercial kitchen.
The new playground is an extension of the Plaza Deck renovation project and has similar sustainable design elements including storm water collection.
The renovated space includes four 15-student studios, one 12-student graduate studio, a model shop, instructional space, an IT Computer Tech lab, a jury room and a gallery for displaying student architectural design models.
The renovation of the Plaza Deck has created a new “greener” area with enhanced lighting and a new water fountain feature. The new structure also features an eco-friendly storm water management system to help reduce the runoff entering the city’s overburdened storm sewers. The parking garage renovation included new lighting, painting, and much-needed structural repairs
The School of Business and Public Administration has been relocated to Building 38. The renovation includes sustainable features such as LED lighting and lighting control systems, daylight harvesting sensors, Energy Saver Appliances and an upgraded HVAC system.
The David A. Clark School of Law has been relocated to Building 52, and the renovations include a state-of-the-art Moot Courtroom.
The Natatorium in the Gymnasium Building 47 has been renovated to address structural issues and bring the center up to NCAA Division I standards.
