"The expectation that even the students in whose room the ceiling collapse occurred can return to Stoughton this weekend bests by two weeks any guesses I would have made when I first saw the damage on Tuesday," Nathans wrote in an e-mail message.
A ceiling collapsed in Stoughton Hall on Tuesday, injuring three students.
The firm blamed the collapse on faulty nails that had been weakened by additional layers of the ceiling added over the years.
To stabilize the structure, engineers installed large bolts into the ceilings of fourth floor rooms. In some rooms the bolts were spaced across the entire ceiling eight inches apart.
Students in Stoughton North 29, the room where the ceiling collapsed, were allowed back to their suite late last night.
