Say Cheese this Thursday – POSTPONED!
Due to the weather, we’ve decided to postpone the Say Cheese LinkedIn photo-shoot and pizza networking event scheduled for Thursday, January 18 at the Birmingham Room. We will reschedule the event, and keep you posted on the new date! Apologies for the inconvenience.
In response to extreme weather conditions, the University may decide to cancel or reschedule academic activities and curtail non-essential services.
In the event that there is no university-wide class cancellation announcement, but there is an inclement weather warning in effect, your instructor may also opt to adjust the scheduled in-person class. Please monitor your Canvas Announcements and email for any further direction and information from your instructors, as well as ubc.ca for the most up-to-date information about campus-wide class cancellations.
Generally, UBC’s goal is to communicate these decisions by 6:00am for morning and afternoon Learning Activities, and no later than 3:00pm for evening Learning Activities.
