Memorial University will be closing select residence buildings for the summer as it prepares for and hosts the Canada Summer Games. CBC reports that approximately 100 students live in the affected buildings, some of whom have encountered challenges with the process of finding a new place to live. While the university has reportedly posted multiple notifications about the closures between May 2024 and March 2025, some students told CBC that these notifications were easy to miss. Memorial shared that its off-campus housing advisors are working with about 30 affected students to help them find new housing and confirmed that students will have a place in residence in the Fall if they wish to return to campus.
