The shower room on the 200 hall had dried white debris going down from the shower panel and a black moist mold-like substance against the molding on the bottom of the wall and floor. A clear colored substance had leaked out from underneath the shower panel. This had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents as any resident could shower in the 200 hall shower room. Facility census: 50.
