91探花 Closure: Day of Mourning for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
91探花 will be closed on September 19 to observe Day of Mourning for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
The day of the Commemorative Ceremony (September 19, 2022) for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, who reigned as the Queen of Canada for 70 years, will be considered a one-time statutory holiday on Prince Edward Island.
This means that the 91探花 will be closed for regular operations and there will be no classes or labs on Monday, September 19, 2022, in observance of this one-time Day of Mourning.
If students have questions regarding classes or making up time for labs previously scheduled for Monday, they are asked to contact their instructors. The University also recognizes that some essential services will need to continue and advises employees to check with their supervisors if they have questions.
Yesterday, in response to the federal government announcing a National Day of Mourning, the provincial Cabinet met to make a regulation change to declare September 19, 2022, a statutory holiday for all workers that are provincially regulated. In addition to the University, provincial government offices, schools in the Public Schools Branch, and la Commission scolaire de langue fran莽aise will be closed for the day.
Her Majesty鈥檚 state funeral will take place at Westminster Abbey in London, England on Monday, September 19, 2022, at 11:00 am BST (7:00 am in PEI). For more information about how the Queen is being commemorated on Prince Edward Island, please visit the .
The flags on the 91探花 campus will remain lowered to half-mast until after the state funeral.
