• IDX will be open for students to access the Dining Hall ONLY when the dining hall is open.You WILL still need your ID card to access the main doors during dining hours The building will be closed at all other times. Only those students on a meal plan and approved to be in campus housing are able to utilize the Dining Hall.

The Mail Center will be closed Tuesdays and Thursdays and weekends. If you have “outgoing” letter mail please deliver to the Mail Center before noon so the Mail Center has time to process it before closing. When picking up your packages, please use hand sanitizer and maintain good social distancing. 
• The Campus Store will be open 12:00–3:00 PM, Monday to Friday. 
• All shuttle service has been canceled effective 6pm tonight. GMT City buses continue to operate at this time, and use the same stops at 194 St Paul Street as our shuttles. If you have a car at Lakeside that you need access to, feel free to bring it up to Main Campus. We will not be enforcing the Zone 2 regulations at this time. Please DO NOT park in Skiff, so that Res Life and emergency staff can get in and out as needed. 

As this situation evolves, please understand that this information is subject to change at any time. We will inform you if there are any future changes to access or hours of operation.

Sincerely,
Bruce Bovat
Director of Campus Public Safety
