Mon Jan 26 13:16:26 UTC 2026

Good morning,

I hope this email finds you safe and warm as we continue to experience much
snow and freezing temperatures locally and across much of the nation. It's
a first to see classes cancelled and our office closed as we kick-off the
semester, but we are nevertheless excited to welcome our new and returning
transfer students to the Queensbury Campus and look forward to seeing many
of you tomorrow, when regular operations are expected to resume. Below is
useful information as we begin the new semester.
