Hurray! It is the first back-to-school week in UBC. With students back on campus, we look forward to the campus filled with laughter and learning. However, the University has decided to move most classes online until January 24 because of the emergence of the Omicron variant. We understand that students living off-campus may not have a chance to enjoy the snowy campus. Whether you are a new or returning student, we are sure you will enjoy the winter wonderland on campus.
While you were attending the virtual classes, we were searching the Open Collections to find the best snowy campus images – hope you enjoy the gorgeous views. You are always welcome to make any of these images your virtual background when you attend the online class.
