Dorm without heat, hot water forces Chicago State University students to stay in hotels
Many Chicago State University students are being housed in hotels after a pipe burst, leaving a dorm and the student union without heat or hot water. “When it became clear that heat and hot water would not be working in either the Residence Hall or the Student Union building, we immediately made plans to provide our residential students with warm, safe accommodations,” interim CSU president Rachel Lindsey said in a statement. “Because this occurred over the weekend, we were able to ensure that students did not lose any class time.” [Tribune]
