Emergency Alert
UDC Operating Remotely on Thursday, Jan. 29

The University of the District of Columbia’s academic and administrative offices will conduct business remotely on Thursday, Jan. 29. All on-campus activities, including athletic-related activities, are cancelled.

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).  The Center for the Advancement of Learning (CAL) is available to support faculty with instructional continuity, including support for Blackboard, Zoom, Webex and other teaching and learning technologies.

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. 

Green Initiative

About the UDC Green Initiative

UDC recognizes the positive impact that it can make on the environment and human health through the procurement decisions it makes. To do so, the Office of Contracting and Procurement utilizes the City-Wide Remanufactured Toner Cartridge contract. This City-Wide contract was awarded to Laser Art, Inc., a certified small business enterprise.

University-Wide
Remanufactured Black Toner Contract

Why It's Important

  1. It is consistent with Mayoral Order 2009-60 that requires government purchasers to maximize implementation of environmental preferable product standards to the maximum extent possible.
  2. It reduces air and water pollution associated with landfilling, incineration, and the manufacturing of new cartridges.
  3. It conserves natural resources such as timber, water, oil/petroleum, and minerals because it reduces the need for raw materials.
  4. It saves energy.
  5. It decreases emissions of greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change.
  6. It helps to sustain the environment for future generations.

Every year more than 300 million printer cartridges are thrown away and sent to landfills or exported to developing countries, where they poison both the environment and workers. Recycling toner cartridges keeps them out of landfill and puts them back into the manufacturing stream, where they can be remanufactured and resold countless times. By utilizing the remanufactured toner cartridge, the university is contributing to sustaining the environment.
