Terry David Bateman, 45, and Bradley Allen Rowland, 40, both associate professors of chemistry at Henderson State University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, were taken into custody Friday afternoon, the sheriff's department said in a news release.
Hall would not elaborate on what was found following the report of a chemical odor, nor would she confirm whether the professors were suspected of making meth inside the school.
Bateman, 45, and Rowland, 40, are both on administrative leave that started October 11, Hall said.
Both are expected to appear in Clark County District Court once a formal charging decision is made by the prosecutor, the sheriff's department said.
