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.

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.

Student Organizations

English Honor Society

Sigma Tau Delta – Alpha Epsilon Rho, the UDC chapter of the International English Honor Society, has been an active chapter since 1995. We have held monthly activities, such as alumni panels, poetry readings, film screenings, and holiday events. We also support local non-profit organizations in literary arts gift drives for homeless families and essay competitions for DC students. When the campus is open, we support a Sigma Tau Delta “Give a Book–Get a Book” Free Library in the Student Center and in the Caring Corner on the 4th floor of Building 71.  A photo display of past Sigma Tau Delta inductions dating back to 1995 is currently on display in Event Space 8 (“The Point”), also on the 4th floor of Building 71. For more information, contact the Faculty Sponsor Dr. Helene Krauthamer at hkrauthamer@udc.edu

The Phoenix is UDC’s literary magazine, published annually and featuring short fiction, personal narratives, poetry, and critical essays written by UDC students, faculty, and staff.
