Second threat found in two weeks

Monday, March 3, 2008


A note discovered in the first floor men's bathroom of Furcolo Hall became the second written threat found on campus in two weeks and may be linked to last week's message found in Bartlett hall.


The discovery prompted University spokesman Ed Blaguszewski to send out an e-mail alert to all students early this morning. According to Blaguszewski, a janitor found the message and alerted the authorities at roughly 6:00 a.m. this morning.


Blaguszewski said the message was not directed to any individual.


"We do think now there is some common language among the messages," he told the Daily Collegian. "There may be a connection and we’re continuing to investigate. We’re hoping we came identify the source. "


Blaguszewski said this was the first that this sort of an incident had occurred during his time working for the University.
