Fri Feb 25, 2022 Attn: students of Ontario Colleges and Universities, I learned of a student denied access to Mohawk College due to vaccination status. The bad news is that he took one shot already. But the good news is that after intervention (from a parent), he has been allowed to enroll as long as he provides a booking for the second shot. I am hoping that others can use this information to delay, and ultimately avoid their second shot. Further I am hoping students at Mohawk College and elsewhere gain courage and attend their institutions anyway, regardless of their status. At this point we need peaceful protest by students who refuse to have their careers held hostage over an unethical medical requirement. Best wishes, Richard Mann Waterloo ON Encl: correspondence, names removed. ------- Original Message ------- On Friday, February 25th, 2022 at 4:48 PM, <> wrote: > After receiving that email I contacted the college to ask what options there were considering the fact that he is not eligible to receive a second vax for another 7 weeks.
