Burst pipe in Stewart Biology Building
Published: 7 February 2023
Extreme temperatures over the weekend have caused pipes to burst in the Stewart Biology Building.
It will take at least two more days to complete the clean-up and thoroughly assess the extent of the damage. Therefore, the building (North and South blocks) will remain closed until at least Thursday morning.
- Classes: All classes scheduled in the building before Thursday should be held online where feasible. Classes that cannot be held online will unfortunately be cancelled.
- Faculty/Staff: Academic, administrative and support staff working in the Stewart Biology Building should work from home, unless their supervisor requests their presence and can arrange an alternative in-person location. Staff who cannot perform their duties remotely will nonetheless be paid.
- Animal Care: Tomorrow, we will communicate an access protocol for people who must enter the building to tend to animals.
Further updates will follow as soon as more information becomes available.
