To the ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ community,
We are aware that access to Kelvin Smith Library may be impeded, especially for those who use wheelchairs and other assistive devices. To address these concerns as well as provide an additional quiet study space, we are opening Adelbert Gym from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily. The university has set up study areas and enhanced WiFi connectivity in this air-conditioned space. Like all buildings on campus, it will require a ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ ID to enter.
As a reminder, yesterday we adjusted hours to provide alternate study options, with the closure of Tinkham Veale University Center and Thwing Center after 6 p.m.:
- Leutner Commons’ Division of Student Affairs room and Lower-Level Fireside Lounge will be open 24/7, beginning Friday.
- In Fribley Commons, Elephant Step Inn’s late-night seating area and second floor lounges will have 24/7 access, beginning Friday.
- The Biomedical Research Building cafeteria will remain open until midnight.
- Shuttles will be available throughout the week, 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., to transport to and from Samson Pavilion. As always, Safe Ride is available until 3 a.m. each night.
I appreciate that these interim safety measures may be inconvenient in the midst of final exams, but the safety of our community must be our highest priority.
Sincerely,
Eric W. Kaler
President
