McGill’s downtown campus partially reopened after encampment dismantled

McGill University says its downtown campus is partially reopened after the pro-Palestinian encampment on its lower field was dismantled.

“The encampment has been dismantled,” the school wrote on its Facebook page on Wednesday afternoon. “Due to current weather conditions, the clean-up at the site will continue tomorrow [Thursday], as will the excavation and replacement of contaminated soil on the site.”

The following buildings remain closed:

  • Burnside Hall
  • Dawson Hall
  • Ferrier
  • Frank Dawson Adams
  • James Administration
  • Leacock
  • Macdonald Engineering
  • Macdonald Harrington
  • McCall MacBain Arts
  • McConnell Engineering
  • McLennan Library
  • Morrice Hall
  • Otto Maass
  • Pulp & Paper
  • Redpath Hall
  • Redpath Library
  • Redpath Museum
  • Schulich Library

“Those who would normally access these buildings must stay home,” the university writes on its website. “Classes typically held in these buildings will move online. We ask instructors to please notify their students immediately.”

Faculty and staff are also encouraged to stay home if possible.

All other downtown buildings, including daycares, are open.
