The humidity in the building I work (Coulter) is extremely low due to the air circulation system. I've been told that there's nothing we can do that wouldn't cost a fortune. Unfortunately, my colleagues, students, and I have been losing a fortune from the damage this has caused on our instruments. Low humidity also adversely affects people's health, and I suspect that it may be the cause of two of our music faculty relocating their offices to a healthier building (Belk). They both reported illness from being in Coulter, but no environmental cause (such as mold or a chemical) was found.Shannon Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11233090366441435112noreply@blogger.com
