I am not sure how many people know this, but I am a student at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. For those of you that were worried about me (although I am pretty sure I talked to everyone on IRC today - thanks to Anna and Annie telling me that people were talking about it), i just wanted to let everyone know that I am ok and didn't even go to campus today. I am a bit shook up, though. Even though my department and office are on the exact opposite side of the campus, I know a lot of people that were potentially involved.

Today at approximately 4pm, the Peter B. Lewis Building (the business school) was invaded by a gunman. So far, they have confirmed that one person has died. The gun man is still in the building, but hopefully everything will be resolved soon. Local News - ABC Channel 5

Please pray for the hostages that are still inside the building! I still haven't heard from some of my friends.
