Students, faculty, and staff with business in Greenlaw Hall may have to put that work on hold for at least part of the day today.

Greenlaw Hall is located between Bingham Hall and Lenoir Hall at the southeast end of Polk Place. It’s a six-floor building that houses the, American Studies, Comparative Literature, English & Comparative Literature, and Folklore departments.

It is unknown at this time whether Greenlaw will open for classes Tuesday, according to Hudson. Stay tuned to WCHL (97.9 FM/1360 AM) and Chapelboro.com for updates on the situation. We’ll also share the news on Twitter, @WCHLChapelboro.
