Bowling Green, Ky. - Damage from fire early Sunday morning has caused Cherry Hall to be closed temporarily. Monday classes in Cherry Hall have been cancelled while the building is cleaned and inspected. Most of the damage was confined to the ITV classroom and hallway on the first floor. It is anticipated that classes will resume on Tuesday for most of the building. Faculty members who need access to their offices may get into the building on Monday.

Faculty from the English, philosophy and religion, and history departments will contact students via email regarding the closure and possible alternate class locations.
