The college asked students and employees to leave the campus.
The break, on Maluhia Street between 8th and 9th avenues, was reported at 6 .a.m.
The Board of Water Supply said 15 customers on Maluhia Street between 9th and Pakele avenues are without water service.
Crews are working to restore water service to most of the affected customers.
