Is The Renovation Of The Old Corcoran Gallery Literally Making The Students There Sick?

“When the Corcoran failed as an institution in 2014, George Washington University absorbed the school and its [120-year-old] building at 17th Street and New York Avenue NW. The university soon after launched an unprecedented renovation, and decided to keep the school open to studios and classes for the duration.” The disruption caused by the construction was bad enough, but now students are complaining of headaches, nausea, rashes, breathing problems, and even fleas.
