FLINT, MI -- Officials at Mott Community College have removed chairs from a building on the Flint campus after they were notified of bed bugs found on the furniture.

An email sent out Friday, Oct. 18 by Jason Wilson, the colleges vice president of student success services, discusses the discovery of the bugs on Thursday in the Mott Memorial Building student lounge, room 2140.
