- Purcell previously said there were no building addresses on campus, which made it hard for first responders to find the locations of students on the Shadyside campus. As a result, Chatham was asked to change the addresses on the Shadyside campus, leading to some confusion within Amazon’s system. In regards to the Amazon packages that were lost, Purcell reported that Chatham is working with Amazon to rectify the issue.
