So does anyone know what happened to the Chem building??
I was guessing some freshman probably spilled some chemicals or something. It was funny seeing people walk around in hazmat suits. |

Chemistry Building Reopened
An incident in the Texas Tech University Chemistry Building shortly after 11 a.m. today (Nov. 2) caused the building to be evacuated for about four hours. No one was injured and there is no damage to the building. The Lubbock Fire Department and its Hazardous Materials unit were called as a precaution. The Hazardous Materials Unit neutralized the chemical reaction and the building reopened shortly after 3 p.m. A graduate student working on an experiment created an unexpected chemical reaction. Nitrogen gas, a naturally occurring, non-toxic gas, was released and created a loud popping sound. Classes will resume in the morning (Fri., Nov. 3). Any student whose personal belongings are not picked up by 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, can pick them up in Room 104 of the Chemistry building beginning at 8:00 am Friday. from techannounce -------------------- bored...so i did this

You don't even know you're suffering from it until you pass out and die. Congrats to that grad student. p.s. i hope someone didn't think there would be an explosion....nitrogen is a natural fire suppressant -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good. They wake up the next day and they're on fire."
