Staff & Faculty Members Return to RAC & MAC
As for all of us, the last 18 months have been a time of great adaptation for us at the RAC and MAC. We've implemented extensive health and safety measures, reconfigured our spaces, and reservations are now required for all visits. Most notably, as we’ve reduced our capacity, we’ve prioritized our students - as an academic institution, they are our primary reason for being - and we are pleased to report that we’ve welcomed over 15,000 student visits, all with no recorded transmission of any infections.
Still, we have missed our staff, faculty, alumni and community members - for the life you bring to our spaces, the example you set for our students, and the inclusive and welcoming community you help build with us. Our sincere thanks for your continued interest and patience across this time.
Ryerson Staff/Faculty Access Resumes October 12
Starting October 12, 2021, Ryerson staff and faculty will again be able to purchase memberships to our facilities, starting with our reduced-fee Morning & Weekend option.
