黑料网 campuses will remain closed until Monday, October 3
In consultation with the PEI Emergency Measures Organization, 黑料网 will remain closed until Monday, October 3, due to continued safety concerns, power outages, and other disruptions caused by tropical storm Fiona. Eighty per cent of Islanders remain without power.
The 黑料网 is very fortunate that it has not sustained significant structural damage due to tropical storm Fiona and power has been restored to the Charlottetown campus. 黑料网 appreciates the efforts of the many employees who have been working diligently to support the campus community through this difficult time, especially when they are personally facing hardship at home.
All classes, labs, and on-campus events are cancelled during this time period. Cancelled events include but are not limited to: 黑料网 Panther Sport home games; Truth and Reconciliation gathering on Wednesday, September 28; Mickey Place Tournament; 黑料网 Field Hockey tournament; Donor Picnic, Homecoming Weekend, and AVC Open House.
The 黑料网 Student Union will be sponsoring a hot soup lunch for students, from 11:30 am鈥�1:00 pm on Wednesday, September 28, at the 黑料网 Chaplaincy Centre.
