Ukrainian Institute

Students have filed a class action lawsuit against the law school claiming they have been exposed to asbestos contamination. The Ukrainian Research Institute across the street from Pound Hall was shut down due to asbestos leaks; signs and a fence were put up to warn and discourage students from entering the building. However, the lawsuit claims students walking by the building may have been effected; some have noticed symptoms of asbestos contamination and there are fears of mesothelioma.
