Employees Posted on December 15, 2016 at 2:17 pm. I recall teaching in an interior classroom in the Simcoe building when the power went out across the eastern seaboard. I couldn’t see my hand in front of my face. I called to a colleague down the hall who was also teaching and fortunately she had a tealight in her cabinet and we were able to all have light to get out of the building safely. SHARE:
