Practices

No Food and Beverages in Classrooms and Labs There is no food permitted in any classroom or lab. Beverages are permitted in unbreakable, re-sealable containers. Please note that in computer labs, containers should be placed away from the keyboard to prevent unnecessary damage. Beverages (including water) are not permitted in health sciences skill labs. For health and safety reasons, instructions will be established by faculty and management within designated shop areas, such as Electrical, Metal Machining and Woodworking.
College Access Conestoga College recognizes that in some programs of study students may require after-hours access to classrooms, shops, labs and studios. The College maintains this after hour's access in accordance with the academic needs of individual programs. This privilege requires that students follow established guidelines, rules and regulations to ensure safety and security of person and property. The regular hours of operation at all College campuses are from 7:00 am - 11:00 pm, Monday - Sunday. This policy applies to all full-time and part-time students of Conestoga and is valid for all days/evenings except for those on which the College buildings are closed (e.g. statutory holidays, closures for repair, etc.). The policy is applicable to all College campuses.

Anti-Violence Policy Violence is not tolerated at Conestoga College! Any incident of violence must be reported immediately in accordance with this policy. Introduction Conestoga College promotes the highest level possible of safety and security in all of its activities. While violence is not pervasive at Conestoga, no college is immune from it. All College employees and students strive, and share a responsibility, to create and maintain an environment that is free from violence. This policy recognizes that violence often begins with harassing acts or disruptive behaviours that can escalate into threats to personal safety. It is meant to augment all existing College policies that address inappropriate behaviours. It does so by specifically dealing with those elements of actual or threatened violence associated with any incident. Definition Violence includes assaults, threats, bullying, stalking, intimidation and other disruptive behaviours. It can involve oral, written or electronic statements, gestures or expressions that communicate a direct or indirect threat of harm.
Communications Security Services will ensure appropriate members of the College community are informed when they have reasonable grounds to believe a risk of violence exists. Disciplinary Sanctions Any individual who commits or plans a violent act on college premises may be banned from all campuses and/or subject to disciplinary actions, criminal charges or both. Victim Support In addition to the processes described above, the College is committed to providing support services to victims of violence. Students have access to assistance from Student Services Counselors.
What If Classes are Cancelled? How Do I Know?
Conestoga attempts to remain officially open at all scheduled times. In the event of cancellations caused by bad weather or emergencies, the College notifies selected local broadcast stations as soon as a decision is made to cancel classes.
In a College-wide cancellation situation, these media outlets receive notification first:
CKCO-TV CJIQ 88.3 FM (the Conestoga College radio station)
Kitchener stations 570 News
AM/96.7 CHYM FM
Waterloo stations KFUN 99.5 105.3 KOOL FM.
