Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=15545)

This diagram eliminates answer choices (B), (C), (D), and (E):
Answer choice (B): H must be assigned to the top floor per the second rule.
Answer choice (C): L must be assigned to the bottom floor.
Answer choice (D): Because L is assigned to the bottom floor, from the third rule no other department can be assigned to the bottom floor.

Thus, answer choice (A) is correct. Also, remember that Could be True questions often address unfixed variables and this would allow you to focus on answer choices (A) and (D).
