Signs will be posted on affected buildings in advance and updated on August 14 to include emergency contact information.
Students have been informed that the Registrar’s office will be working remotely so there will be no in-person meetings. Questions and requests should be sent to smc.registrar@utoronto.ca
Students in residence will be made aware of how to access buildings, and will also be informed that sinks and toilets across campus will not be affected, but hot water will be limited, and laundry services will not be available until the power is restored.
At St. Basil’s Parish, regularly scheduled Masses and confession will still take place, however there will be no lighting or speakers, and the washrooms will be unavailable. The parish office will be closed.
Once the power is restored, IT/AV will check all systems to ensure things are working properly.
