WINTER WEATHER AWARENESS
We hope our Eagles are staying safe and warm this winter. The temperamental Texas weather can change rapidly, so be prepared!
When traveling, always use your best judgment and contact your professors if you do not feel comfortable attending class in person.
Learn more about UNT’s weather policies and stay weather aware by continuously monitoring forecasts. Should the university close or delay start times, all students will receive an Eagle Alert message. Log in to your my.unt.edu portal to make sure your contact information is up to date.

EAGLE ALERT TEST
Speaking of Eagle Alert, UNT will conduct a test of the Eagle Alert system on Friday, Jan. 26. The system, used to notify the UNT community about emergency situations and university closings, will send text and voice messages by phone and display a full-screen test alert on campus computer and presentation screens.
Follow @UNTEagleAlert on X to get emergency updates in real time. After the test, we recommend that you save the number your Eagle Alert test came from in your phone contacts as “Eagle Alert” so that it doesn’t show up as unknown in the future.
