From yesterday:

Brandon University is CLOSED today (Tuesday, March 7) and ALL CLASSES CANCELLED.

This applies to all classes, labs and exams scheduled for the Brandon campus today. The Healthy Living Centre is also closed. Classes are also cancelled in Dauphin, however the Winnipeg campus is open normal hours.

In Brandon, the ongoing storm has blocked doors and parking lots are heavily snowed in or impassable. As we clear paths, it is blowing back in. Staff, faculty and students should stay home, and stay warm.

For those on campus, for example in residence, Harvest Hall is open regular business hours today (their featured item is a delicious grilled cheese sandwich, featuring brie and Swiss cheeses, green apple slices, bacon and hot pepper jelly.

Faculty who were scheduled to be at the Brandon Career Symposium should know that it will be very quiet today. They can attend if they like, but are not required (Update: the evening session of the Career Symposium is cancelled).

We expect to be open tomorrow, and will update you as soon as we can. <— UPDATE: We are open for Wednesday, March 8
