Important Update: Niagara College classes continue during province-wide support staff strike
All Niagara College classes will continue as scheduled, as the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU) has initiated a province-wide strike of full-time support staff. Picketing is taking place at all campus entrances, and students and non-striking employees should allow extra time and expect delays entering campus. A second access point is open at NOTL Campus via Lampman Court. For regular updates, transit info, and status of college services, please visit www.niagaracollege.ca/bargaining
