Students, faculty, and staff with business in Greenlaw Hall may have to put that work on hold for at least part of the day today.

AlertCarolina issued a message Sunday just after 6:30 p.m. stating the building had been evacuated due to a water main that had burst near Greenlaw. According to UNC News Services spokesperson, Susan Hudson, there was flooding damage to the building, and crews worked on repairs all day Monday.

Greenlaw Hall is located between Bingham Hall and Lenoir Hall at the southeast end of Polk Place. It’s a six-floor building that houses the, American Studies, Comparative Literature, English & Comparative Literature, and Folklore departments.

It is unknown at this time whether Greenlaw will open for classes Tuesday, according to Hudson. Stay tuned to WCHL (97.9 FM/1360 AM) and Chapelboro.com for updates on the situation. We’ll also share the news on Twitter, @WCHLChapelboro.
