Media Advisory – Classrooms Reopened After Early Morning Gas Leak

Due to a construction accident this morning, a gas line was punctured at the Interactive Learning Center. Three buildings were evacuated - Math/Geosciences, Multipurpose Classroom Building and PAAW (Campus School) but are now open. The parking structure has also been reopened.

8 a.m. finals were redirected to Taco Bell Arena, entrance #2. Shuttles are running along Cesar Chavez Drive to transport students from the west end of campus to the east end.

The gas leak has been fixed, so 10:30 a.m. finals will be held in regularly scheduled buildings.
