But, as is common for university construction, the low bid got the job. And you know what that means. Not only that, but this, and several other buildings around us, are build on a swamp. There is an active spring in the elevator shaft. You can hear the water running. One part of the roof has leaked since the building was built. Several of the teaching studios in the same end of the building have a mold problems, as do some of the practice rooms. The windows in all of the teaching studios and practice rooms are sealed. The classroom windows can be opened. We have not had a condensation problem on the windows in cold weather, but maybe that's because there is no humidity in the building during the winter. I'm keeping my finger crossed. As I said, the university is willing to spend capital funds to improve the situation. With all of the other budgetary problems this state has, let's hope they keep their word. Wim ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
