Back to Mac: Ground Department helps create more spaces to connect outdoors on campus

To welcome more McMaster community members back to campus this fall, Facility Services is helping to equip outdoor spaces with additional seating to provide more opportunities to safely learn, study and collaborate in the fresh air. UTS has also increased Wi-Fi capacity outdoors on campus.

Students, staff and faculty members will find additional outdoor gathering places with seating like Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, and benches installed by the Grounds Department throughout campus in Wi-Fi enabled locations around campus. A map of all outdoor seating and Wi-Fi enabled areas on campus is available on the Back to Mac website.

These new, distanced spaces are currently available for individuals who presently work on campus and will be available to community members with in-person requirements to teach, learn, research or work this fall.
