We know that a safe and secure campus is tremendously important to you and your family. Through the efforts of committees comprised of leaders from both intuitions -- as well as from our Campus Safety & Security Office, Cascadia's emergency management team, and UW Bothell's emergency management team -- we are always engaged in the work of improving the safety and preparedness of our campus community.
Cascadia College will close the campus including the Redmond classroom, offices, and cancel classes if severe weather or other emergency conditions make the campus unsafe.
Cascadia College and UW Bothell uses an alert system to keep you informed in the event of a campus closure, warning, or active crisis. To receive notification about college closures via your email, mobile phone or home phone, you must sign up to receive instant emergency alerts. The current status of campus operations and the sign up for emergency alerts is available on the Emergency Alert webpage.
In the event of an emergency or college closure, Cascadia will issue communications using the following platforms:
- UW alert system
- Cascadia Facebook
- Cascadia Instagram
- Cascadia Twitter
- Cascadia email
- Home page of Cascadia public website
- Major TV and Radio new stations
If the Cascadia campus is closed, all classes held at other locations or online will also be cancelled. Please check the Emergency Alert webpage for additional information. Cascadia College's main phone line is 425-352-8000.
