According to an e-mail from Ben Kollmeyer, Chief Technical Officer from Forensic Analytical, the results from recent air sampling of the Humanities Building do not indicate cause for alarm regarding the occupancy of the building.
“I will complete my full report and distribute as necessary,” Rocky Bonura, director of health and safety, said via e-mail. “I am pleased with this correspondence and confident of the proactive measures taken previously and to date.”
Despite the difficulty, chaos and uncertainty, many students have been able to locate their displaced professors without much trouble.
“This process has been very easy,” Yasmin Antonio, communications major said. “My professor is doing the absolute best she can to accommodate us by making sure she is available as long as possible after class.”
For others, finding their professors has been more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
“At first, I had no idea where to go,” Michael Rodriguez, art major, said. “I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to go to the Administration Building or the third floor of the Humanities Building.”
Along with the hide and seek game some students were playing with their professors, some had become irritated by the not even being able to contact them.
“Not only did I have no idea where my professor was when this first happened,” Rodriguez said.
“I couldn’t even get a hold of him because he didn’t have a phone number to call when I was on campus.”
For those who had no problem finding or speaking with their professors, the main problem was the accessibility to rest rooms.
“The only mishap that bothered me was walking all the way up to the third floor to use the bathroom,” Antonio said. “Everyone had to walk to the front of the Humanities Building just to enter the first floor.”
For Laura Medina, English major, the displaced faculty are even hard to get in contact with, even after they were placed in new offices.
“I’m still not sure where to call my professor and not only has this affected me in my English class, but also in another class,” Medina said. “Although my teachers have new offices it is still difficult to call them to make appointments.”
The slow progress has left Medina asking what is taking so long to fix the problems that have occurred.
“From the looks of it not much is being done. I’m constantly walking past piles of materials just laying there,” Medina said. “I wish it would get fixed sooner.”
