Around 1:30 a.m. on Thursday, the High Rise dormitory on Lipscomb’s campus was evacuated after a pipe had burst on the first floor. As of 7:47 a.m., High Rise has reopened to residents. All classes at the university are cancelled until this evening. The 5:00 p.m. block of classes will take place as scheduled. President Dr. Randolph Lowry says he was informed of the situation around 3:30 this morning. “I am so pleased how our campus has responded to it,” Lowry said. “This is a very complex campus. Students have been great. Very sorry to mess up their night, but we will have free Starbucks in the campus center for all High Rise residents.” “The key administrators were here quickly,” he said, “and we believe we have covered the contingencies and will be back to normal shortly.” From Lipscomb’s main website: Update 6:25 a.m. At 1:45 a.m. this morning a water pipe near High Rise Dormitory ruptured and has affected water service to parts of campus and will continue to do so at points during the day as we work to resolve the issue.

NASHVILLE, TENN – On Friday, Mar. 2, the National Weather Service, along with the local news stations, warned the mid-state of the potential for severe weather. The meteorologists’ predictions were nearly spot on as the storms produced several tornado warnings as well as numerous severe thunderstorm warnings. Many students and faculty were advised to seek shelter on on campus, waiting out the storms in basements, closets, interior hallways and the backs of parking garages. Once the threatening storms had passed and the university had given the all-clear, those same students and faculty documented what the storm left behind. The following is a slideshow compromised of TwitPics, Instagrams and Facebook photos that those folks posted throughout the afternoon and evening. The following video is from Lumination correspondents Caitlin Selle and Kelly Dean. Check back with Lumination throughout the weekend for more on the storm such as videos, more pictures and other content. Until then, feel free to work backwards through the storm by following what our updates looked like today. Lumination would like to thank those that contributed to this story. [From 12:30] National and local weather experts are predicting severe thunderstorms and possible tornadoes for Nashville and much of the Southeastern United States today. [UPDATE: 4:36] Severe Thunderstorm Warning still in effect for Northern Davidson County until 5:15 p.m. NashSevereWx Downtown: it’s not over. More intense thunderstorms coming, hopefully not as bad. Williamson Co continues to elude the worst of it. 3/2/12 4:33 PM [UPDATE: 4:25] All clear for now in the Nashville area. Loving the tweets, everyone. Keep them coming.
