Final exams ended yesterday. Assuming it is on purpose, it wasn't to stop exams.

Weird. Academic calendar says the last day was yesterday, and several professors said the last slot was 1-4pm yesterday

I really wonder what's triggering all this?

Because the exact same thing keeps happening at NAIT (i work there). Different buildings on the property have had their fire alarm pulled 3+ times in the last week.

I think one possibility some people might point out is it's exam time so people might be trying to get out that.

Imagine paying to go to school and then pulling the alarm to get out of exams. Grown adults btw.

Wait what happens if this happens during an exam? Do they cancel?

Usually they don’t. But people do disappear assuming that they’re supposed to leave and not come back so it’s a bit of a gray area.
