I woke up this morning, ready to go, and then saw this horrible news. Fortunately, it doesn't appear that anyone was seriously injured.

I woke up out of a dead sleep for no apparent reason (not even to go to the restroom) and laid awake for a few minutes. Then my phone vibrated— campus shooting a text message said. To say the least my heart jumped.

I'm glad that no one got hurt. These types of things don't happen on our campus. I'm pleased to read that the sirens and emergency alert system went off to alert students.

Hopefully this won't put a damper on admissions and/or outside-interest to the school.

They said the used the reverse 911 system.  I sure didn't get anything from them.  They should definitely look into that.

I live in the student apartments and we heard the shots and some cops.  I honestly thought it was fire crackers and the cops where there for the party. I went to bed well after the shooting but never heard any sirens or was told anything and woke up to a phone call from my father telling me about it.

Just showed a live press conference on fox.  Classes canceled at the boca campus all day no matter when they lift the lockdown.  Just wonder when they plan on making up today's exams?  Supposed to graduate friday, obviously won't be able to take the two exams I have today until after graduation.

First of all, congratulations on graduation (I'll be there too). Even though Bachelors and Masters degrees walk at the ceremony on Friday, degrees aren't sent out for another few weeks, as grades aren't posted until a few days after graduation. Only PhDs actually received their diplomas at the ceremony.
