Fanshawe College has contingency plans in place to ensure that the College remains open and classes run as scheduled. As well as classes and most labs, other services will be available to students, such as the library, all academic offices, counseling and accessibility services. The Registrars Office, Financial Aid and the bookstore will be open as well; students and staff are asked to allow extra time for these services due to possible line-ups. Updates will be posted on FSU.ca and the Fanshawe College website www.fanshawec.ca

How to cross a picket line
- Remember, the strike by Ontario College support staff is a legal strike
- Expect picket lines at major College entrances
- Consider public transportation, get dropped off, car pool, or enter by foot if possible
- Be courteous, polite, and patient at all times
- Be prepared mentally – expect large groups of people walking, carrying signs, handing out flyers, and speaking to you briefly
- Expect Delays – allow for extra time
- Carry a cell phone if feasible
- Whether walking or driving – accept flyers or brochures from the picketers
- Keep conversations pleasant and brief
- If driving – drive slowly! Stop when necessary. You will be allowed to cross
- Roll your car window down (about half-way) to receive the flyers, brochures
- Ease your car through the line; do not accelerate or rev your engine
- Again – be patient and polite at all times
- Inappropriate behaviour on a picket line by any person is unacceptable and may be unlawful
