UPEI to keep warming/charging centres open over the weekend
UPEI will keep two warming/charging centres open from September 30-October 2 as follows:
- W.A. Murphy Student Centre, daily from 8 am-6 pm
- UPEI Chaplaincy Centre, daily from 8 am-5 pm
UPEI Facilities Management has been working non-stop and have made good progress clearing pathways and ensuring campus buildings are safe. At this point, it is our intention to open on Monday, October 3, 2022, as previously announced; however, we will send a message on Saturday, October 1, to confirm our status.
Please note:
- UPEI Security Services is operating 24-7.
- Services for students in residence continue to operate.
- In addition to serving students with meal plans, the Wanda Wyatt Dining Hall is open to students who wish to purchase meals.
- AVC Veterinary Teaching Hospital will remain open for emergencies. AVC Diagnostic Services will continue to provide essential animal health support.
- Robertson Library and UPEI Chi-Wan Young Sports Centre will be closed over the weekend.
We recognize how this situation is stressful. Please remember that UPEI has a number of supports for students through UPEI Student Affairs, including personal counselling (studentserv@upei.ca), Accessibility Services (studentserv@upei.ca), and the International Student Office (irostu@upei.ca). Eligible employees can access the Employee Assistance Program at 1-800-387-4765. We encourage you to reach out for support.
For further updates, monitor local media, social media, and the UPEI SAFE app for updates (download from the App Store or Google play).
