Effective immediately, the door at the north end of the RHL Graduate Wing (by classroom DL 125) will be locked 24/7. Graduate students may enter the building through this door using their student card. We are attempting to reduce the number of people walking through the RHL Graduate Wing, making your classrooms and graduate breakout rooms quieter and less distracting. Only faculty, staff and Sauder graduate students should have access through these doors.

Just a friendly reminder to kindly lock the graduate breakout rooms in the RHL wing when you are finished for the day.
Our office has noticed an increased number of undergraduate students using the rooms because they are able to gain entry.
As a common courtesy, please leave rooms tidy after use. This includes disposal of garbage and paper products. If you are not able to use the room, please cancel your room booking.
Many thanks from the MBA/ECM Programs Office.

You are invited to the UBC Celebrate Research Week Forum, “A Walk on the Darkside of Work”
Our work provides us with opportunities, purpose, connection with others, and a host of other benefits. Yet, it can also deliver to us some of our greatest challenges, stressors, and darkest moments. In this session, we focus on some of the dark aspects of working life, examining the experience and impact of ostracism, customer mistreatment, and career shattering injuries.
