Unclean February 14, 2008 Share Unclean Member February 14, 2008 This is my alma mater, and my fiance is in grad school there. Luckily she wasn't on campus today. This is freaky stuff, though. Any of you have friends/family out there? http://www.niu.edu/alert/campus_alert.shtml http://www.nbc5.com/news/15304821/detail.html http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/c...0,1760508.story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroDamage February 15, 2008 Share ZeroDamage Member February 15, 2008 Probably a copy cat trying to out do the VT shooting. It is getting close to the one year anniversary after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovetomatoes February 15, 2008 Share ilovetomatoes Member February 15, 2008 My brother (ilovepotatoes) goes there. Luckily he was off campus doing a clinical, but he had friends that were there, whom all of (i think?) are ok. Keep them in your prayers either way, as I am sure it will effect everyone on campus in one way or another. My debate on weather Illinois being a no-conceal state contributed to this or not will be saved for later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonfly February 15, 2008 Share dragonfly Member February 15, 2008 That is so sad. I just flip from sad to angry to sad back and forth when I read the articles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoMamma February 15, 2008 Share YoMamma Member February 15, 2008 Any of you have friends/family out there? Yah I know people there. They're all okay. Back when I was looking into which college to go to, I narrowed it down to NIU and WIU. In the end i chose WIU because NIU looked like a dump. I'm honestly not suprised that it happened over at NIU today. De Kalb isn't the safest city to live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters February 16, 2008 Share Butters Member February 16, 2008 Yeah i knew people there too. Luckily they weren't on campus at the time. It really makes me wonder bout these things. It just seems like this stuff is happening more and more often. End of the world 2012??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
