MARCIA BIGS:
The former commander of coalition forces in Iraq, Lt. Gen. Stephen Townsend, recently listed 81 locations where bombs were dropped but did not yet explode.
The facilities used to make weapons were often on the list of high-value targets for the coalition. So now those places are twice as likely to contain dangerous items.
So, this was once a workshop for electrical engineering students. You can also view the lab tables here. It was hit by an air strike in 2015. Then, members of the university staff found bomb-making instructions among the ruins. This was likely an ISIS bomb-making factory, and judging by the crater, a high-value target.
Despite the damage, Dean Alubaidy says he will hold classes this fall in alternate buildings until the campus is ready. Enrollment is expected to be in the thousands, students who have lost three years of education during the struggle and do not want to lose another.
