Water Crisis in the Quad! – Fact: water shutoffs are frequent (and extremely annoying) occurrences. But today, the water was shut off at 4 p.m. in parts of the Quad and has still not been turned on! The latest e-mail, sent out at 10:38 this evening, indicated that there was still not even an estimate of when the water would be turned back on. Get your shit together, Quad pipes!

Update: "The Water Department has located the second break in the line. Unfortunately, the leak is located near a bank of electrical lines which is making the repairs more complicated than expected. There still isn't an estimated time for the water to return to the Quad, but residents should expect another update around 6am." -Paul Forchielli, Housing Services
