Jeff Murphy, assistant director of media relations, said there was about 9 inches of water outside the Union that entered in through the east side of the building. At one point, the water within the Union was approximately 3 inches deep.

Murphy said the university’s insurance agent will be on campus this week to assess the damages.

Facilities and book store employees worked all through Thursday, Friday and into Saturday to clean up the water within the buildings around campus.

Charles Rutt, University Store director, said many employees of the store and facilities worked around the clock to clean up. Rutt said some merchandise was damaged and had to be discarded.
