Threat made to Valparaiso University campus

By Amy Lavalley Post-Tribune correspondent September 14, 2012 11:00AM

VALPARAISO – Other than a police presence from local law enforcement agencies, not much seemed amiss on the Valparaiso University campus late Friday morning, just hours after university officials announced an unspecified was made through a graffiti message alluding to dangerous and criminal activity alleged to be carried out during chapel break.

No classes or programs on campus were cancelled, and the Valparaiso University Police Department, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and local police did not find anything suspicious during a human and canine search of campus.

University officials are expected to release more information about the incident during a 2 p.m. news conference on campus.

Bomb threats at the University of Texas in Austin and North Dakota State University in Fargo forced the evacuation of both those campuses Friday. Whether the threat at VU is connected to those incidents is not yet clear.

Chapel breaks takes place from 11:15 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., and students milled about on campus to their next classes then, reporting they felt secure despite the threat.

“They sent out a campus-wide email notifying all the students that there had been a threat. That’s all I know, really,” said junior Chris Stoming, who’s from the Milwaukee area.

I already posted this in the What's going on in the world thread, but didn't get to post the follow up to it--you beat me to it Diggler!

Do you think this incident is related to the middle east crisis and attacks on our embassies? There were bomb threats in in TX and ND and campuses were evactuated today because of that.
