UPDATE: Classes resume after power problems at the University of Windsor

Classes will go ahead as usual at the University of Windsor on Tuesday after a power failure disrupted them on Monday.

The University of Windsor had to switch to essential services only due to hydro-related problems.

The school reported on Monday afternoon that a power failure had resulted in the cancellation of classes for the rest of the day.

"The power disruption occurred shortly after 2 p.m., impacting systems across the University," said U of W spokesman Dylan Kristy in a statement. "While some power and systems have been restored, full recovery, including internet access, may take longer in certain areas. As a result, the Leddy Library, Toldo Lancer Centre, and CAW Student Centre will remain closed for the remainder of [Monday]. Food services for students in residence are being redirected to Alumni Hall."

The university announced on Tuesday morning hydro and internet had been restored.
