A water main next to the Congregational Church at the corner of North Eagleville and 195 has ruptured, and water has been shut off to the Ratcliffe-Hicks, Grange, and Young buildings so it can be repaired. According to Facilities Operations, it could take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours to address, depending on how serious the problem it is. The pipe is about 10 feet underground and dates to 1914.

Traffic on North Eagleville Road is limited to one lane leaving campus. Those wishing to turn onto North Eagleville from Route 195 should seek an alternate route.
