The 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake also damaged some of the Quad buildings . Language Corner and Geology Corner were closed for repairs for more than five years ; most of that time was spent negotiating with the Federal Emergency Management Agency over paying for the repairs . Memorial Church was also damaged but was repaired more quickly via private donations
