Shooting on Arkansas Campus

Sunday night there was a shooting at the University of Central Arkansas. Two students were killed and one student is wounded. One of the students was killed on the spot, and the other one died in the hospital. The wounded student was shot in the leg and was released from the Hospital.The campus went on lock down and Monday classes were cancelled. Faculty and students where emailed at 9:30 pm to stay in there dorm rooms. It was the first time the campus had to use there new automated system after they purchased it after the Virginia Tech massacre last year.

It's scary to think that a shooting can happen anywhere. That you are not safe even when you think you are. Living on campus anything can happen so the best thing you can do is be smart. Dont walk alone on campus at night. Have a buddy system two to three people, you will feel safer. Next if your scared about walking on campus talk to University Police or any faculty member, I am sure they can help you with whatever you need. It's best to think smart when incidents like this are happening.
