Wellness Lounge: Now Open!

The Wellness Lounge is a space for students to relax, unwind, and meet their peers. It's the ideal stop in-between classes if you want to disconnect from the crowd for a bit and grab free tea, coffee, or snack while you're at it! All you have to do to use the space is sign in, which one of the Wellness Lounge Volunteers will assist you with and then you're good to go!

Please Note: Due to the ongoing CUPE 3903 strike, the Wellness Lounge will be operating on an modified schedule. Please see Hours of Operation below for changes. Thank you for your cooperation during this time.
