SAIT’s campus is home to legacy buildings and, like other post-secondary institutions in the city, performs water sampling to monitor its suitability for drinking. 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.
Meet SAIT’s Spring 2026 valedictorians
From June 16 to 18, SAIT’s spring valedictorians will celebrate with classmates at the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium.
Oki, Âba wathtech, Danit'ada, Tawnshi, Hello.
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.
