Asbestos at Indiana University Dorm Residences Causes Worry Over Lung Disease

According to a report published in the Indiana University student newspaper, the school is ahead of schedule with regard to an asbestos abatement project at the school’s residence halls.

When the Indiana school announced the program to remove asbestos from residential buildings in 2005, it was expected that the remediation project would take 10 years to complete. However, the school recently announced that the project would be completed by 2012.

Indiana communities should be aware that exposure to asbestos is known to cause serious diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestos-related lung cancer and asbestosis.

Men and women diagnosed with mesothelioma caused by asbestos exposure in Indiana may be entitled to compensation from the companies responsible for their disease.
