69传媒

The 69传媒 has taken measures in advance of any impact from Hurricane Fiona on PEI.

Both Facilities Management and IT Systems and Services (ITSS) are asking faculty and staff, as well as students living in residence, to take some precautions in order to prevent possible damage to buildings and equipment.

Facilities Management is responsible for the physical infrastructure on campus and is requesting that members of the campus community ensure that all windows and doors in campus buildings are properly closed. If an issue arises, please contact 69传媒Security Services at 902-566-0384.

With the potential for power outages and surges, ITSS reminds faculty and staff to turn off their computer work stations and monitors when they leave their workspaces/offices at the end of the day.

The University also recommends that, as members of the community brace for the storm, they should prepare for no power for up to 72 hours.

69传媒Athletics and Recreation may also be affected by the impending weather. Home and away games for men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 hockey, men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 soccer, and women鈥檚 rugby that are scheduled for the weekend may need to be cancelled or rescheduled. Visit for more information.
