⚠️ Amber Alert: Help find Parker
The Calgary Police Service are asking for the public's help in locating Parker, 11, and are providing an update on the extensive search and investigative efforts underway to find him.
Parker was last seen shirtless, wearing dark shorts and black noise-cancelling headphones. He is described as 4'11" tall, weighing approximately 90 pounds, with brown hair, a shaved head and brown eyes.
Be observant while travelling through your communities, parks, pathways, green spaces and alleys.
Parker may become even more scared if confronted by strangers. If Parker is located, members of the public are asked not to approach him. Instead, keep him in sight and call 911 immediately.
🚗 Parking on and around campus
If you drive or carpool to campus, we have lots of parking options available to you, including day lots.

Recent testing results indicate a handful of labs and bottle refill stations in the Senator Burns, Heritage Hall and E.H. Crandell buildings have levels of some inorganic substances above recommended guidelines.
Corrective action has been taken, including signage in affected spaces with directions for users, where appropriate. Please follow any directions provided, and remember that bathroom sinks are intended for hand hygiene purposes only.

Student news
Making a difference with more than just a meal
A simple meal can change the course of a student's day — and sometimes their future. Thanks to donor generosity, SAIT's food security initiatives are helping students facing financial hardship access nutritious food, easing stress and giving them the support to continue pursuing their education.
Giving Day and giving back
For Travis Gallup (EVT ’11), a long-standing family connection with SAIT and the desire to make a difference have inspired his first-ever gift in support of student success.

SAIT is located on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi (Blackfoot) and the people of Treaty 7 which includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut’ina and the Îyârhe Nakoda of Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney.
We are situated in an area the Blackfoot tribes traditionally called Moh’kinsstis, where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. We now call it the city of Calgary, which is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta.
