OTTAWA — About 150 Ottawa University students are staying at several area motels after a water line exploded and flooded three floors of Brown Hall at the main OU campus. In a Facebook posting, OU said the water line on the third floor failed late Saturday night after the city of Ottawa re-pressurized the city water system following the water main break that resulting in a boil-water order. Students were immediately moved to the Mabee Center and temporary lodgings were later arranged. Classes will continue today. OU said a shuttle bus service has been established to take students between their motels and classes.
