Students living in Capstone had to wait till Sunday because of a Dixie Little League baseball tournament; the teams were housed in Capstone. According to Melanie Miller, the assistant director of resident life the University had a contract with the Dixie League that ran through the 20th.

Some of these students spent the night in a friend's room, or somewhere off campus. The University offered displaced residents free lodging in the guest housing locat ed in Laborde. Capstone Residence Hall Director, Jill Garon, felt that despite the delayed opening, check-in day went exceptionally smoothly. With Capstone and Columbia Hall opening on separate days there were fewer people trying to bring their stuff in at once. "I was a bit apprehensive about checkin day, but things went really smoothly. We actually began checking people in earlier than planned," said Garon. "Opening Columbia Hall and Capstone on separate days cut down on the number of people and the amount of traffic." As residents checked in to Capstone, they discovered that the building was 3 close for )vations Education, English, Geology, and Mathematics. Most of those classes will now meet in McMaster College on the corner of Senate and Pickens. McMaster had until June been the college for Music Studies. That program has since moved to a new facility next to the Roger Center for the Arts. Holland said some classes will meet in Sumwalt until repairs begin, but after that they must move to McMaster. He said the project should be completed before the beginning of the Spring semester, but if not, Sumwalt may re-open a few weeks late.
