Students’ comments on the new showers, however, have been mixed: a Mather resident mysteriously found that the low flow showerhead improved water pressure, but students from other Houses and freshman dorms have complained that their water pressure has decreased and that it now takes longer to wash. Many students, however, have said they cannot tell the difference. Leverett House Building Manager Paul J. Hegarty told The Crimson that students there have not complained, suggesting that the majority have not had a problem.

Three Pennypacker residents living on the same floor were diagnosed with scabies over the weekend, forcing dozens of freshmen to throw their wardrobes into the wash and begin cautionary treatment for the skin disease. Students reporting rashes first came to University Health Services (UHS) early Saturday afternoon, and administrators notified students of the outbreak shortly thereafter. Scabies, a highly contagious but treatable skin disease, is caused by mites that burrow under the skin and lay egg, spread through direct skin-to-skin contact between people or through clothes and bedding.
