Student lounge

In the Brodie Center, right besides Tim Hortons, there is a student lounge. Medical students regularly use this lounge. What is not commonly know is ,that you as a graduate student have access there too. There are very comfy sofas, billiard and fussball-tables, microwaves and a fridge. Plus, inside there is our office, so you could come and visit us.
To get access, please visit the Physical Plant in the Basement of the Medical Services Building (Room S001) and let them know you are a graduate student needing access to that lounge. Once activated your permission stays until you graduate.
