There are two messages. Search for the crimson white twitter account to see them.

Two days ago a bunch of us received texts and calls regarding Tutweiler being put on lockdown. Apparently there was a gunman and a threat made on the alpha phi bid day video. During this, a bunch of random rumors went around like a joker walking around with a gun. The Joker, who didn't have a gun, was from lambda chi's scavenger hunt with pledges. Every one was panicking and the school didn't send out an email until a bit past 12 in the morning if I recall correctly. Nothing was found but the school basically brushed it off as a joke because nothing was found at tut. During that night the RA's weren't notified of the event and basically got their information from twitter and the sort. Some went around telling students to lock their doors and stay in, others were oblivious to it because they hadn't been told.

Fast forward to yesterday. Some sororities were told to stay off campus and recommended to not attend class. They were also told not to wear there letters. The random rumor going around now was that it was going to happen at 9:29, when the equinox started. Personally I don't get that one but a large portion of campus was wary of that time.it passed and nothing happened. About forty minutes later I received a text with a screen shot of a second threat. Apparently it was sent to a students email. The student who received it was telling everyone to be safe on Facebook and it was the most popular post. The school claims the second threat was made known to them earlier in the day but we weren't notified about it until social media got a hold of it and it blew up. So far some classes are canceled due to students being afraid to attend and my exams have been pushed back until thursday.

Tl, dr; two threats made against Greek life regarding treatment of minorities. Some classes canceled and some arent. Some of the student body is upset with the seemingly slow and vague response by the school. Lots of rumors going around as well but the main issue is the pendragon threats. FBI is involved.
