WHITEWATER, Wis. — College students in Whitewater who went without heat and hot water in their dorms for about six days are getting the service back.
And they’re using the experience in a fundraiser to provide safe drinking water to those who need it in India.
The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater said temporary repairs to the steam system allowed hot water to be restored in some residence halls by 4 p.m. Tuesday, and others are getting it restored Tuesday night. Hot water and steam are expected to be restored to all campus buildings by noon Wednesday.
