the water on campus comes from the desalinization plant on campus. Not to say the water can't be contaminated with some sort of bug, but it's not the same water as the water the rest of the island gets....

...or so i've been told.

I've seen a water truck delivering water to campus at times (although not usually).

Make of that what you will...

Since you're a local - I have a quick off - topic question - it still involves water though so I figured I'd post it here

What's the water temp. in Grenada? Is it bath tub warm, or a bit cooler like some of the other Carib islands. WHen I say "cooler," I mean high 70's, low 80's, as opposed to Bermuda water which is around 88-89 degrees in the summer months. Just curious since I'm a beach lover. Thanks.

Only when the desal plant breaks.

~82-84 degrees, based on the thermometer on my dive computer :-)

I don't think there is anything wrong with my comment.
