The TB scare is definitely something to take into consideration. The girl happened to live in my dormitory. I tried making an effort to get to know everybody and that may include contact with the unfortunate victim of TB. None of her fellow dormmates knew she was ill so that scares us even more. We don't even know who it was.

We can at least be grateful that they are getting us tested as soon as possible. People should definitely be warned about something that serious. If a person is ill in that manner she can't take the well-being of her fellow classmates for granted if she is aware of the situation. I just hope she's alright now. We had a wonderful group of people living in my dorm. Let's just hope all who had any sort of contact are in good health.

The school is not doing enough to inform the students. There are many who don't know anything about it. It is so frustrating to not know any more information.
