City of Wichita boil water advisory update

The citywide boil water advisory issued by the City of Wichita is still in effect, and Wichita State University continues advising students, faculty and staff not to use campus drinking fountains or bottle-filling stations until further notice. The city expects to have an update later this afternoon.

As a reminder, this advisory applies throughout the Wichita area and does not only affect campus.

Due to food service interruptions caused by the ongoing boil water advisory, Wichita State Dining Services is providing the following food and beverage options:

Free bottles of water will be available in the Rhatigan Student Center, Kiah Duggins Shocker Support Locker and Shocker Hall. Please take what you need while being mindful that supplies are intended to serve the entire campus community.

The following options in the RSC will be open with limited menus during normal business hours: Panda Express, Chick-fil-A, Freddy’s and Shocker Sports Grill and Lanes.

Additionally:

  • Food and beverages will be offered for purchase at a pop-up convenience store in the RSC food court. Offerings include soda, sandwiches, nachos, candy and chips.
  • Shocker Hall will be open with an altered menu and limited beverage options.
  • The Market at GroundHouse is open and selling pre-packaged food items. No coffee is available.
