A gas leak prompted the evacuation of Jarvis, Ed Landreth, Foster and Waits Halls on Monday afternoon. Students were advised to avoid the area surrounding the buildings as emergency personnel responded to the leak.

The university issued an all-clear for the buildings at 12:21 p.m.

Faculty and staff were advised in an email Monday morning that Atmos Energy would be on campus making repairs to a gas line behind Jarvis.

According to Holly Ellman, TCU’s associate director of communications, the leak was caused by the rupture of an underground valve and buildings were evacuated as a precautionary measure.
