The heat is back on at York University after a fire damaged steam boilers Monday that caused the evacuation of the campus. Some 4,000 students living in residence have returned to the campus after spending the night in a hotel, or with friends and family. University administrators will be meeting to reschedule exams that had been canceled Monday night. A spokesman told the Toronto Star that the school hopes to have exams completed before the Christmas break.

UPDATE: York has announced that the university fully reopen on Wednesday and exams will continue as planned. Exams canceled Monday and Tuesday are still being rescheduled.
