OSU Students Allowed Back Into Troubled Dorm

More than 11-hundred Ohio State University students evacuated from their dorm rooms because of a water leak may now return.An underground water line failure forced the school to close Park-Stradley Hall on Sunday night. The building passed all of the necessary safety inspections Wednesday after crews removed water from the sub-basement and repaired the electrical system. The school has told students in the dorm hot water service and potable water will likely take two days to restore.
