What's going on over at Hall-Atwater?

You might have noticed the ten gazillion (well, like, four) firetrucks that are currently on either side of Hall-Atwater (on Church and Lawn). Here are some shitty quality pictures I took on my cell-phone:I spoke briefly to a member of the Middletown Fire Department, and he suggested that there wasn't any fire, but rather either a water leak or an electrical problem or both. A student who was nearby said that she had tried to get into Hall-Atwater, but the double doors were locked - and water was seeping out. Hopefully everyone is okay.

If anyone has more information, please comment / send it in!

I was in hall atwater in my lab and I heard a huge bang. Went outside and this pipe had burst but it didnt look like one of the water ones and it smelled weird. It also started leaking all over the halls like in random places. Called Psafe. They said it might be a chemical spill and told HA labs to evacuate. They prolly called the fire-d to just be safe. I dont think it was anything more than a frozen pipe? IDk im from CA. Pipes dont freeze.

What starts with "F" and ends with "uck Party"?

That's right: a Fire Truck Party.

As the prize for a corn eating contest in New London this summer, the newly founded Fire Grill LLC is coming to Wesleyan to host a two hour cookout party .... where all food will be cooked off grills installed into the back of a restored antique firetruck!

So come; eat firetruck food, have firetruck conversations, rock out to firetruck music, or dance like a fireman. There will be plenty of food (including kosher and vegan options), so invite all of your friends and let's make it the most firetruck two hours Wesleyan has ever seen!

Hosted by ΑΔΦ, the Bayit, Science Hall, and 59 Pine.

Date: Saturday, Sept. 20
Time: 1:00 – 3:00 PM
Location: Behind the Bayit (157 Church)
