It's kind of ironic that you say that Janet. About half of my Practice class was ready to leave this morning and we had a midterm exam! They were very freaked out by the whole thing. They were deciding what to do when we got text messages saying the suspect was in custody. It was a bit amusing when they started yelling the news to each other across the hall...

Unfortunately Lindsey, I don't think this was exactly a false alarm. I truly believe that if he hadn't been caught, someone would have been hurt. He threatened suicide and said he wouldn't go alone. Thank goodness the police and the university took his threat seriously.

It's hard to feel safe on campus these days. Brendon's best friend was kidnapped from a dorm parking lot several years ago and murdered a few hours later. Then there was an alleged assault last semester. The girl claimed a guy in a clown mask attacked her with a knife outside the dorm, but it turned out that she made the whole thing up. That was a big deal at first and really scared a lot of people. Then the crazy Christian radical guy came and campus was incredibly close to rioting, and now this. Hopefully we won't have anything else serious happen. We've definitely had our share of "events."
