John Pittman, executive committee member in the John Jay PSC chapter and an associate professor of philosophy (standing, far left), facilitates a discussion about indoor air quality at North Hall at a September 9 chapter meeting. Faculty and staff have complained about black dust coating surfaces in their offices and some have experienced eye, skin and respiratory irritation. Panelists included Jean Grassman of the PSC Environmental Health & Safety Watchdogs (seated, at left), Sociology Professor Andrew Karmen (seated, second from right) and two reps from the campus administration. For more about the Watchdogs, see their webpage on the PSC website.
