To all members of the Faculty of Medicine,

With the new academic year set to begin in earnest, I am pleased to report a great deal of progress has been made with respect to remediation efforts at the McIntyre Building following the July 13 fire. I take this opportunity to thank the University’s Project Review team who have taken over the reins from the Emergency Operations Committee and who continue their meticulous work to minimize disruptions to our community.

Please take note of the following updates:

To all members of the Faculty of Medicine,

Following weeks of remediation efforts we continue to make steady progress on the road to returning the McIntyre Building to normal operations. Roughly half of the building has re-opened, with occupants of the 7thÌýfloor and up returning to the building. A great deal of work remains however, in particular with respect to the lower floors. While the goal is to be able to re-open the 1stÌýto 6thÌýfloors as quickly as possible, portions of these lower floors are expected to remain closed for several months.

To all members of the Faculty of Medicine,

As previously communicated, as of last Friday McIntyre Floors 7 and higher were reopened for all faculty and staff members and students, accessible via the 6thÌýfloor Pine entrance. With three of the four ventilation systems servicing this area of the building returning to operation, temperatures on these floors continued to drop over the weekend and are now within their normal range, with the exception of small pockets of warmer areas that are serviced by the one HVAC system that remains to be cleaned.
