Willow Hall?

[DSM4Cy]

I'm a current ISU student who's home for spring break in Des Moines. I just got a text and call from ISU Alert, our new system incase things like VT or Northern Illinois happen, saying there's a potential gunman on the loose in Willow Hall. Something about African-American, 6'0, with a tattoo on his neck in a blue and white jacket. I can't remember the rest of the message.

If anyone has friends in Willow Hall, or is in Willow Hall and hasn't heard this already, I was just putting it out there. This is the first time this system has been used, and although most people should be gone on break it's 2 in the morning and who knows how many people are aware of this!

Scary stuff. Hope everyone's OK.

At least most of the students are probably gone on spring break.

How can people be so dumb. If I wasn't home already, I would have come home tomorrow.

Except, UNI's gunman wasn't on campus, he was picked up in the DM area i believe. It was more of a text message threat.

The ISU gunman is actually in a dorm on campus.

But, still, seems like a lot of stupid people out there doing stupid things.

Re: ISU Campus Alert

This is some scary ****. I never thought something like this would happen to us.

Re: ISU Campus Alert

It's most likely that someone just has/had a gun and hasn't actually taken any shots. If that's the case, it isn't the first time and it won't be the last.

Re: ISU Campus Alert

Isn't Willow where alot of the athletes live now, along with Maple and Larch?

Hopefully everything is ok!

The ISU Alert said to watch iastate.edu for updates. Nothing has been posted as of now.
