Time change impacts on campus

Beginning November 1, 2026, most of British Columbia is remaining on Pacific Time (PCT) year-round and clocks were not set back as in previous years.

As a result, some lights that are on timers are turning on/off at unexpected times. Additionally, some clocks are not showing accurate times.

Facilities Management is aware of the issues and is working as quickly as possible to address them.

If you encounter a facilities issue, please reach out to facman@uvic.ca. Or send in a FMIS request.

See the University Systems website for information about other impacts on campus.
