Students and staff helped move furniture from the lobby, put sandbags in front of the doors and placed plastic garbage bags around electrical outlets after water began seeping through the front doors.

Campus Operations staff member Tory Thorton said that he’d also seen flooding in Willamette Hall, Beall Concert Hall and the Knight Library.

If you have photos of the flooding around campus, tweet them @DailyEmerald.
