Deadly Fire At Southern Adventist University
I got sad news this morning when I found out that a fire at Thatcher Hall on the Southern Adventist University in Tennessee killed a student. Thatcher was my only home in the world for awhile back in the 1970s. There was a kitchenette in each wing, making two per floor. Each contained cooking and laundry facilities. I never lived on the third floor, but I was always bothered by the fact that the windows in the building could not be opened and would have had to be broken out in the event of fire. The building's exterior is typical of that area's heavy use of brick and columns. These views show a bit of dorm room interiors, with a peek of a window.
It's one of the most beautiful college campuses in the world, with a backdrop of lush mountains and a general feeling of peace about it. My heart goes out to the folks there this morning.
