July 20, 2012
Severe thunderstorms hit Bowling Green Thursday, causing damage around town and minor damage to WKU.
Several windows were reported to have been shattered across campus.
A female was injured in Barnes Campbell Hall after her window shattered. She refused to be taken to the hospital and the injury didn’t seem serious, according to the WKU Police Department.
Helen Siewers, landscape architect at WKU, said several large trees near Florence Schneider Hall had fallen, in addition to large limbs scattered about campus.
Where power was interrupted, it was restored by around 11 a.m., Siewers said.
![Students cheer for Senator at Large Jaden Marshall after being announced as the Intercultural Student Engagement Center Senator for the 24th Senate on Wednesday, April 17 in the Senate Chamber in DSU. Ive done everything in my power, Ive said it 100 times, to be for the students, Marshall said. So, not only to win, but to hear that reaction for me by the other students is just something that shows people actually care about me [and] really support me.](https://wkuherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/jadenmarshall-600x422.jpg)
