As you may be aware, a winter storm warning is in effect for our region until 6 p.m. Friday. It is expected that the rain that has fallen today will freeze as temperatures continue to fall. There also may be a mix of rain, freezing rain and sleet tonight. Trees, power lines and other elevated surfaces may accumulate ice. If there is any adjustment to tomorrow’s academic schedule, we will send an email tomorrow morning and post an announcement at svu.edu by 6 a.m.
We urge extreme caution for those of you who may need to travel or go out in this weather. Be wise and safe.

Friends of Walt Ralls and his wife, Mary Frank, joined for a reception held at President Smith's house yesterday afternoon. Vice President Ralls, one of the early pioneers of the revitalized Southern Virginia College, spent more than 13 years contributing to the mission of the school. We are sad to see him go but so grateful to have had such a great leader-servant in our midst. We will always be grateful for all Walt did for the school, community and church.

available to those who complete the President's challenge. [Posted by Burke]
