K-STATE'S CARDWELL HALL CLOSED TEMPORARILY FOR AIR QUALITY TESTING

MANHATTAN -- Cardwell Hall at Kansas State University was closed today at 9 a.m. to test air quality in the building. It is likely the building will remain closed at least through tomorrow, said Steve Broccolo, emergency management coordinator for public safety.

All classes in Cardwell Hall have been moved to other spaces, said Al Cochran, assistant provost.

Cardwell Hall is one of the buildings damaged in the recent tornado. Workers had to replace parts of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning system in the building. The closure is for air testing and is a precautionary measure to be sure no asbestos is in the air, Broccolo said.

 

The following classrooms have been moved:

 

Cardwell 102 Justin 109
Cardwell 103 Akert 231
Cardwell 120 Burt 114
Cardwell 122 Fairchild 212
Cardwell 129 Waters 333
Cardwell 130 Kedzie 214
Cardwell 131 Waters 132
