I am the mother of a college freshman. She has been living in the dorm for about a month now, and has been sick almost the entire time. She is currently on 4 medications for respiratory issues. Many other students in her dorm are experiencing the same issue.
At first, we just suspect a back to school virus, but her dorm has a VERY strong mildew smell that you can smell immediately upon entering the building. In addition, her laundry and everything that she brings home that has been in her dorm has that same strong smell.
Finally, she has had several water bottles develop mold in them at school.
Has anyone else had this experience - and if so, what did you do?
Aside from the unpleasant smell, I am really worried about the long term effects on her health. We are paying $10,000 a year for her to live in this building! What recourse do we have?
