At Cégep de Shawinigan, a burst sprinkler pipe caused significant damage to several classrooms. The pipe burst before the holidays, causing damage to the ceilings and flooding several classrooms, some of which contained technological equipment. While no classes have been affected, professionals are still completing work to clean and repair the spaces and ensure the equipment is fit for use. Radio-Canada reports that the damage has been assessed at $600K so far, with the total amount anticipated to be higher.
