Students living in Clement Hall at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, were forced out of their dorm on Sunday morning after vandalism caused a pipe to burst on the 7th floor.

According to Katherine Saxon Kieth from the university, a significant amount of water penetrated the 7th floor and floors below, including closets with electrical equipment.

There is currently no power in the north tower of Clement Hall, which houses 400 students.

Students on the 7th floor will have to find another place to live for the time being as it will take a couple of days to extract water from that floor. This could take up until Wednesday. All students who live on the 7th floor are asked to see the front desk staff at Clement Hall to receive your temporary assignment. Students will need to be escorted to the their rooms to get any additional belongings needed through Wednesday.

The university is already working on the relocation spaces, which could include on-campus options and hotels.

UT has released a statement saying all North Tower residents who do not live on the seventh floor may return to their rooms and stay there. However, there will not be power. Power may not be restored for a few days. Candles will not be permitted during this time.

Power has been restored to the South Tower and all residents who do not live on the seventh floor can return to their dorm rooms.

Elevator service will not be available at this time. Additionally, hot water pumps are currently compromised, so hot water is not available at this time.

The university is asking anyone who saw or heard suspicious activity in the early morning hours in Clement Hall to report it to the front desk.

WATE Six On Your Side spoke with two students who live on the seventh floor.

“It’s the worst because the tile that busted and the water pipe that busted was actually right in front of my dorm, so all of the girls’ dorms are pretty messed up,” said Kaylie O’Dell. “I had about 40 pieces of clothing inside of a huge bag and they’re going to get it cleaned for us. But I was ringing out my clothes before I could even put them in the bag because they were soaking wet.”
