Since Athens Technical College serves a large geographic area and since conditions may vary on occasion in areas outside of Clarke, Elbert, or Walton counties, students should use their own judgment regarding travel conditions. In case of hazardous weather (tornados or severe thunderstorms), campus personnel will provide notification. When possible, the college will post closings on its website.
The emergency action plan posted in each classroom and laboratory recommends the actions that members of the college community should take to protect their safety and welfare. The plan displays the locations of the safest areas on campus.
