Harrelson said. "They need some type of

Dave Castine, associate director of
auxiliary services, said, "There are screens
at McClintock now, but they are insect
screens."
Castine said plans are under way to place
protective "decorative wrought iron
screens" over McClintock windows.
"THIS IS an expensive project," he said.
The screens cost $4K) each.
Castine said Sims dorm already has some
protective screens on its windows. "We are
to finish at Sims and then do McClintock this
summer," Castine said.
He said efforts to obtain the wrought iron
screens have been stepped up since the
alleged rape. "There has been a rush to
have this done. We are doing this as soon as
possible," Castine said.
