Dear Colleagues and Learners,
In consultation with the Algonquin College Executive Team, I want to let you know that we have decided to suspend classes at the College’s campuses in Ottawa, Perth and Pembroke as of 5 p.m. today, Tuesday, February 12. Algonquin College will be closed, with the exception of essential services, until 5 p.m. on Wednesday, February 13.
The College’s policy governing campus closures notes that, “on occasion, unusually severe weather conditions or other emergencies may require a campus to be closed in the interest of safety.”
Environment Canada has declared a winter storm warning for our region, with snowfall amounts of up to 40 centimetres, high winds, blowing snow and “near-zero visibility.” It also notes that localized power outages are possible.
We are committed to providing a safe learning and working environment for our College community and will be evaluating conditions over the next 24 hours. We ask everyone to monitor the College’s social media accounts for updates.
Please exercise caution and patience as you make your way home this afternoon.
Sincerely,
Cheryl
