What does this mean?

This means that in Phase 2, the Service Desk will be open only from 10:00 am–2:00 pm on weekdays.

A new service, Book-a-Service-Desk-Visit, will allow employees and students to book time with a tech at the Service Desk between 8:00 am–10:00 am and 2:00 pm–6:00 pm Mondays through Thursdays and 8:00 am–10:00 am and 2:00 pm–5:00 pm on Fridays for any issue that needs face-to-face interaction. More information on Book-a-Service-Desk-Visit to come.

Why is this happening?

Following recent layoffs at the College, our IT staff has been reduced. As a result, our IT Service Desk support hours had to be adjusted.
