Students, faculty play catch-up after Pinnacle campus re-opens

Students and faculty are trying to solve problems caused by the Pinnacle Campus electrical fire which closed the campus from Oct. 14 to the 22.

Adjustments were forced onto already busy schedules during the end of the first eight weeks of fall classes.

"I had a test that day, and they wouldn't let us in," ACC student Haley Howard said.   "So, we took it outside.  It was the worst day of my life."

Howard arrived at campus on Wednesday morning expecting to take a math test indoors.  Instead, when the class wasn't allowed inside the decision was made to take the test on the benches outside.

"Because of the water my test got all wet, and the wind made it hard to concentrate," Howard said.  "I'm pretty sure it's the reason I failed my exam."
