Yikes, sumi! I'm glad you're safe.
Campus is secure - only essential personnel are to remain. I shall try to go home as soon as I can find a ride.
I want to know WHAT IS UP with dudes opening fire in Illinois lately!
Or maybe I'm losing my hearing.
You know, your brain can compensate and start filtering it out after a while. It used to happen to me with the air raid sirens in Prague. It was kinda bizarre, because once it started, I could turn it on and off.
Hope you find a ride promptly.
We're sending students home and student affairs personnel are being asked to stay.
Finally - the alarm has been turned off.
The campus is closed tomorrow.
Oh, man, sumi. I'm so glad you're okay.
Damn, sumi, what an afternoon! Get home safe.
