    Thank you!

    I'm so glad that other readers are hesitant to immediately start blaming the administration. This is tragic, horribly tragic, and I have trouble believing that anyone at the university would have willfully left students in the dark. As others have said, this shooting doesn't really follow the typical pattern.
