The Edwardsville Fire Department responded to a gas smell just before 1 p.m. Monday in the Science Building.
The smell turned out to be a non-hazardous mixing of chemicals coming from a lab, according to Greg Conroy, University Director of Marketing and Communications.
The building was evacuated and put on lock down until the source of the smell was found.
Conroy said the all clear was given around 1:45 p.m. and people were let back into the building.
