DECEMBER 21, 2022 — As San Antonio prepares for the freezing temperatures that are expected to reach the area Thursday night and extend through Sunday, UTSA is readying its response plans to ensure continued operations. The campus is scheduled to remain open and activities and events will take place as planned.
To accommodate students, faculty and staff in need of assistance, warming stations will be available on the UTSA Main Campus.
The John Peace Library will serve as a warming center during its normal hours, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday, December 22, and Friday, December 23.
