CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Both the University and the town of Chapel Hill are operating under emergency conditions Friday due to a water shortage.

According to an alert sent out by Alert Carolina around 12:15 p.m., the campus water supplier, Orange Water and Sewer Authority, warned that the water supply was critically low.

Students were instructed not to drink or use water on campus until further notice.

At 1:09 p.m., Alert Carolina announced the University was immediately canceling classes because of fire safety concerns.

The University is currently operating under Condition 3, which means all non-mandatory operations are temporarily suspended -- offices and facilities are closed and classes are canceled for the rest of the day.

Ram's Head Dining Hall is currently operating under normal conditions. Campus residence hall officials advise that students leave campus for the weekend if possible.

Updates on the water crisis can be found on the official OWASA website.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
