Paper Summary:

This paper examines the events of January 19th, 2000 during which three freshman college students were killed when a fire broke out in their dormitory building in Seton Hall University. The paper looks at which organizations investigated the cause of the fire and their findings of misconduct.

From the Paper:

"The actual alarm was sounded at 4:28 A.M., and South Orange (NJ) fire department trucks appeared within minutes. The actual fire was confined, reports now indicate, to three foam sofas in the third-floor students' lounge, but it was the heavy smoke from the blaze which forced the student evacuation. "The fire was small but intense, sending thick plumes of blinding smoke throughout the third, fourth, and fifth floors of the building." (Sterlin, p. 2) "
