  • W.A. Murphy Student Centre, daily from 8 am-6 pm
  • ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ Chaplaincy Centre, daily from 8 am-5 pm

ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ 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:

  • ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ 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 ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ Chi-Wan Young Sports Centre will be closed over the weekend.

We recognize how this situation is stressful. Please remember that ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ has a number of supports for students through ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ Student Affairs, including personal counselling (studentserv@upei.ca), Accessibility Services (studentserv@upei.ca), and the International Student Office (irostu@upei.ca).
