Message to students living in Brooks residence

Gazette
Over the past few months, uOttawa’s Housing Service has initiated air quality testing on units affected by water infiltration at Brooks residence.

Housing Service undertook air quality testing of all units in Brooks residence last weekend. This testing is now complete and preliminary results indicate the presence of mold spores in some units. Impacted students have been informed and are required to be relocated.

If you have not been contacted by Housing Service, it means your unit is not affected by this measure.

Rest assured that the health and safety of our student residents remains of utmost importance to the University. Active monitoring and testing will continue. We will communicate relevant information if need be.

If you have concerns or wish to be relocated, please contact Housing Service at our 24-hour line at 613-562-5885. New accommodation will be provided.

Please note that the following services are available to you at any time:

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
