Classes are cancelled today (Mar 4) and the main campus at Brandon University is closed due to ongoing severe weather conditions and extensive road closures.
In an online post BU says, “most offices and campus services will be closed, and unavailable. Critical needs, for example heating, electricity, and internet connectivity, are being monitored and any outages will be attended to as swiftly as possible. Residence will remain open, and residents will have access to meals. Walking paths and parking lots will be cleared as soon as practicable. You may not have immediate access to vehicles left in BU lots.
Unless you have been specifically required to come to campus by your manager to support critical operations, please stay home. Work from home will not be required, nor will use of vacation or banked time.
At this time, the Winnipeg campus remains open, although we are monitoring conditions there.
If any updates to this closure are required, they will be first sent to your official Brandon University email address, followed by posting on our website, BU social media, and wide sharing with local news outlets. Please stay warm and stay safe.”
