Don't drink the water.
Last week everyone at UCLA got emails to only drink water from campus sources after it had been boiled for one minute. Everyone-- not just those enrolled in wilderness survival classes. Apparently the water was potentially contaminated because of a water leak. Anyone who has ever tasted the water fountain water could've told them that a long time ago. Signs all over affected buildings reminded us of the new water consumption rules:
What was really special about the water contamination scare was how the maintenance crew took extra special precauations to ensure that no one missing that familiar metallic hue in their diet could take the dangerous misstep of taking a swig from the fountains.

I find it interesting that the statement came from the Psychology department instead of Maintinence or Health and Human Services...
...Is it possible that this is some grad students master's thesis... "Psychology grad students and the effects of decreased water consumption." ...or some such.
Nope, it was legit. Several of the campus food places removed their ice and water dispensers and posted notices that the water used in preparation of their food wasn't contaminated. Good guess though, whenever I see a dollar on the sidewalk I always look around for someone with a clipboard before I pick it up.
