Hello, I’ve been suspended from utm for the summer, but today, I tried booking a study room in the library and it could not find my name in the database. I just want to know, Is that normal or should i be worried?

hey,
i’ve never heard of this happening, but it kind of makes sense to me that it would. i did what i could to see if the university had any explanations for this on the internet, but wasn’t actually able to find anything specifically on this.
my best guess is that this is what’s happening: when you’re suspended, the university doesn’t consider you to be enrolled as a student. this u of t libraries site indicates that only currently registered u of t students are able to book group study spaces at the uni, key word being current. so it’s probably not like the system totally wiped its memory clean of you– it’s more likely that, since you’re not paying fees while on suspension, you’re not able to use the facilities as a paying student would. unfortunately, that means you’re gonna have to find some new study spots for the time being.
tl:dr i wouldn’t worry about it! seems pretty normal to me.
over n out,
