Wednesday, September 24th, 2008. 4:00 PM

• The Main Building and the East Court were evacuated this afternoon following a fire alarm due to a gas leak. The gas leak has now been contained.
  
• The all clear has been given for both buildings and it is safe to drive vehicles out of the parking lot on the north side of the main building.
  
• Classes will resume as normal on Thursday, September 25.
  
• The gas leak was caused when stakes to secure a tent in the parking lot next to the main building were removed, puncturing a gas line.
  
• The gas line has been temporarily repaired and ATCO will be working tonight to make the full repairs required.
  
• The boilers will be shut off this evening and the building may be cooler in the morning.
