Explosions and Power Outages Shut Down Texas Tech Campus
SHARE

Texas Tech University faced a series of unexpected events that led to the shutdown of its campus and the early dismissal of students for spring break. According to an emergency alert issued by the university, the chaos began with an explosion at a substation near the school on Wednesday evening. This explosion resulted in widespread power outages throughout the campus.

As conditions worsened, reports of a “gas odor” on campus began to surface. The situation escalated further when videos started circulating on social media showing green-colored flames shooting out of manhole covers on campus. In response to these alarming developments, university officials quickly sprang into action, evacuating parts of the campus and prohibiting staff members from returning to their offices. Access to the central area of campus, known as the Engineering Key, was also restricted due to the gas odor.

Videos shared on social media depicted smoke billowing up from the streets on campus and flames leaping out of manhole covers, heightening the sense of urgency and concern among students and faculty members. In light of these events, Texas Tech University made the decision to send students home early for spring break, even though the break was scheduled to begin the following Monday. By late Wednesday, students were allowed to re-enter residence halls, but staff members were advised to stay away from their offices as power outages persisted across the campus.

The college, located in Lubbock, Texas, found itself grappling with unforeseen challenges that disrupted normal operations and necessitated swift action to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone on campus. As the situation continued to unfold, updates were shared with the university community to keep them informed and provide guidance on the next steps to be taken.
