MU Environmental Health and Safety visited McReynolds Hall this week after faculty members began experiencing health troubles due to spending time in their offices.

EHS determined these problems were caused by large amounts of mold and standing water discovered around the east half of McReynolds Hall. English professor Devoney Looser said she discovered a wet carpet and evidence of mice in her basement-level office upon her return for the academic year. She said these were mild annoyances compared to the mold.

"I don't think anybody was expecting a palace when we moved here but it was worse than we anticipated," Looser said.
