Times Union Report: EMPAC was rushed. RPI getting sued
August 4th, 2010
An electrical contractor, LaCorte, is alleging that they were instructed to rush construction at EMPAC, which cost them an additional $2.6 million over what they were paid. It’s an interesting article in the Times Union, and bad news for RPI, but we all knew that EMPAC was rushed to get done in time for the big party.
Looks like RPI could be out a couple million bucks if this goes through, which is a shame and ultimately a loss to students. That money could have been used for many other things.

Speaking of rushing things: “…which cost them an additional $2.6 over what they were paid.” Only an additional $2.60? I can’t imagine suing over less than three dollars
I’m sure this is also something that RPI’s insurance will help cover or cover entirely, they’ve done it before.
And let’s not be too quick to judge RPI before they’ve had their day in court, we haven’t heard their side of the story.
