(LEE UNIVERSITY) — Early this morning a physical plant worker went to do lawn maintenance when he realized he did not know where Carroll Courts was located.
“I spent almost 30 minutes looking for the place and then it hit me… I’m not even sure this place exists” physical plant worker Phil Macon told the Clarinet this morning.
The dissapearance of Carroll Courts comes in the wake of a growing concern amoung students who have made claims in recent weeks that Carroll Courts has gone completely missing.
Carroll Courts is run by residential life and houses mainly married and non-tradition students, according to the university’s website.
It was erected in 1972 and named after Leonard Carroll, a prominent figure in the Church of God.
The first time Carroll Courts went missing happenened in the fall of 1986 when residential life forgot where the buildings were located.
Their public position on the issue was that they did not forget where Carroll Courts was located but rather that the mere existence of Carroll Courts was an ugly rumor started in the dining hall.
Carroll Courts was not rediscovered until the Spring of 1987 when two freshman who mistakenly came across the apartments thought it was the ruins of Tomlinson College.
The call was made to Residential Life at approximately 11:30 am this morning that Carroll Courts has once again been lost. Residential Life immediately called Cleveland Authorities to form a search party to find the apartment complex.
Residential Life director Michael Jacob made a statement at 12 o’clock this afternoon stating his concern for the apartments.
“This time we will not let history repeat itself,” Jacob said at an emergency meeting, “we need to find and recapture Carroll Courts in the next 48 hours.”
“At times it seems like those apartment buildings are nothing more than a myth, but no, they are real. Carroll Courts is out there somewhere it we will find soon… much sooner than ever before.” Jacob continued, inspiring residential life’s student workers to go out and search for the buildings.
There is no official reports of a sighting or even of documentation of Carroll Courts.
