Feb 4, 2014, 7:50 AM | Updated: 11:41 am

PHOENIX — Parts of Arizona State University’s main campus were without power for several hours Tuesday morning, but most classes were not disrupted.

Cause of the outage in Tempe hadn’t been determined but power was fully restored around 11:30 a.m.

Two dorms, the bookstore and the business school were also in the dark.

It’s the second power failure on campus in less than a month. Over winter break in January, leaking water caused a shutdown to about 20 percent of the campus.

We want to hear from you.
