ELECTRICAL OUTAGES
Winter Break electric outages are coming again this year. While UNT’s campus is closed for break, most buildings will be shut down and kept at lower temperatures to conserve energy while largely unoccupied.
In addition, Facilities will perform planned power outages on select buildings over three days to complete annual maintenance. Outages are planned to occur during the day, with all electricity being restored by the end of each day. Read more about the details and building impacts.
