Hi everyone,
I'm sure most of you have already heard about the shooting here at Northern Illinois University. If not, I'll give you a brief summary: Around 3pm CST on Feb. 14, 2008 a gunman opened fire in Cole Auditorium (a large lecture hall) with a Shotgun, Glock, and another small calibur gun. There are conflicting reports about the number of people shot, but it seems to be 21 plus the gunman making the total 22. As of the moment, 6 people (including the gunman) have died. There are at least 6 others in critical condition. If anyone wants more info, I can try to answer them, as we are being updated here on campus very often. You can also go to almost any news station, channel, or website (chicagotribune.com, chicagosuntimes.com, wgn.com, newyorktimes.com and the NIU website itself: www.niu.edu, just to name a few) and read up on it.
I just hope you guys can please keep NIU in your thoughts.
Thank you.
