UHDS News

The West side of campus is experiencing unexpected interruptions to power on Tuesday, April 24, in the following buildings:

• Buxton
• Cauthorn
• Hawley
• Poling
• Marketplace West Dining Center

Please use caution while navigating your building.  Elevators may not be functioning properly at this time. Residents are also encouraged to turn off computers and other sensitive electronic devices during the outage.  The wireless network in Hawley Hall has been impacted by this outage as well.

Pacific Power has been contacted to determine the cause of the power outage and UHDS will provide an update as soon as more information is available. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. If you have any questions or concerns please contact your RA.

Afternoon update (3:30 p.m.): At this time, power has been restored to the West side of campus; however Pacific Power is still working to complete the necessary permanent repairs. Given the work in progress, we anticipate another short-term power outage later today in Buxton, Hawley, Cauthorn halls and Marketplace West Dining Center.

Marketplace West will reopen with limited dinner service and menu offerings. Again, a short-term disruption may occur during meal times.

Thank you again for your patience as we resume normal operations in our residence halls and Marketplace West.

Sincerely,

University Housing & Dining Services
