Please ensure windows, doors are secured during cold weather Facilities is asking for the University Community's help for the coming days. Due to the extremely cold temperatures predicted, please be extra vigilant in securing windows and doors of your buildings as most freeze-ups are not from mechanical failure but rather from unattended windows or doors. It only takes a small opening and a few minutes to cause a pipe to freeze up. Please check your office and classroom areas before leaving for the day or weekend. Thank you for your assistance. -- Larry Zitzow, Director of Facilities.
