Mount Allison University closed on Wednesday over ‘concerning message’ on campus

Mount Allison University in Sackville, N.B., will be closed on Wednesday after finding a “concerning message” on campus.

The university said the message referenced Feb. 11, 2026, and they have decided to close all classes and on-campus activities “out of an abundance of caution.”

“Any scheduled midterms will occur during the next regularly scheduled class,” said Robert Inglis, vice president of finance and administration, in a written statement. “Residences will remain accessible with keys as normal and Jennings Dining Hall will remain open Tuesday and Wednesday until 8:30 p.m. with increased Security.

“Late-night will be cancelled Tuesday and Wednesday.”

Inglis said they have notified the RCMP about the message. They did not provide further details about the content of the message.
