More than 150 cancer cases have been reported by NC State alumni who attended classes at Poe Hall, which was shut down due to concerning levels of PCBs. Alumni like Christie Lewis and Jennifer Walter have been diagnosed with various cancers after attending classes in the building. NC State is investigating the potential link between the building and the cancer cases, and the university has created a webpage to provide updates on the investigation. The National Cancer Institute and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services are involved in the investigation, and legal action is being considered against the company that made the materials containing PCBs used in the building's construction.
