Brandon University says its campus will be closing down on Friday and staff will work from home as a precautionary measure amid the new coronavirus pandemic.
The university has already scrapped in-person delivery of courses and exams, and students living in residence were asked to move out by the end of last weekend.
In a news release, it says buildings will be locked and student key cards will be turned off at noon on March 27, with few exceptions.
Employee key fobs will work as normal. Students who require school computers to finish work are being asked to contact their dean and, if approved, will only be able to access individual buildings from 8 a.m.
