The Hélène‑Desmarais building at HEC Montréal is empty for roughly three‑quarters of scheduled classroom time, according to utilization data released Monday.

That 75% vacancy rate is markedly lower than the occupancy levels recorded for the institution’s other two pavilions, which together host the majority of classes.

The building, the newest of the three campus pavilions, therefore sees significantly less classroom use compared with its counterparts.
