No shooter. Likely a hoax.

Lots of Swatting going on. Its the copycat syndrome.

First it was Villanova, UT Chattanooga, South Carolina, then yesterday the UofA.

Kansas State officials intercepted a swatting attempt last night.

I just hope all the "cries of wolf" don't cause a lack of concern if there is a real event on some campus.

it’s because kids will always be kids and never understand the seriousness of a school shooting but it’s because the schools overdo this shite. Every fricking year at every school in American high school now they have active shooter drills and spend entire days of professional development for teachers on talking about how to deal with it. And teenage boys especially realize the absurdity spending so much time on something that will rarely happen. The right way to handle it is have a plan but don’t continually harp on it! You end up looking like an idiot and the kids stop taking it serious

I searched but couldn’t find it but I seem to remember back when I was at the school there (admittedly long ago) we had a man on campus toting a gun and supposedly looking for his girlfriend. I could not remember the outcome.

In 2000, a grad student flipped out and shot Dr. Locke on the 2nd floor of Kimpel.

didn't a football player commit suicide one time as well, perhaps in the dorms, may have been off campus?

Am I wrong? hmmm During HDN's tenure, I believe

I remember the incident in the 2000’s but there was one in the time frame of the early 80’s where there was a widely reported active shooter on campus. But I can’t remember the outcome.

I thought there was another involving the relative of the family who used to own the crooked hook catfish place in Jacksonville. Toulson was the last name. Something happened there. Maybe he committed suicide following being let go by Nutt? Dude was a good kid, great family.
