Title's misleading.

Big difference in UT and St. Edwards University.

Peace

My point was NOT to mislead. My objective was to quickly post a news article of interest based on yesterday's tragic events at Va. Tech.

St. Edwards is a university in the state of Texas. The University of Texas at Austin is titled as such. Pretty obvious to me. If this had happened at Mary Hardin Baylor or Rice University, or wherever, I probably would have entitled the post the same way...my thinking to be to allow others to know where the event was taking place.

I highly doubt your day was ruined by clicking the thread and having been 'mislead' for a few seconds.

If you have nothing relevant to add; then don't.



To try to get back to topic; I sure do hope that we don't see any 'copycat' type situations in the coming days. Our nation's schools and universities are so open and easy to get around in.

OK relax......step back from the keyboard.

I just though people might want to know the exact university and not just the state it was in. There's quite a few universities in Texas.

This is really nothing new, there are bomb threats that quietly go on all across the US every month.
My sons middle school, before I decided to homeschool, received at least one bomb threat each week.
There was never anything in the news about it, the school would simply send a note home with my son telling us "the studenets were evacuated for 1 hour, then let back in." Im assuming and hoping, the bomb squad was ran through the school but there was never a mention of it.

My apologies. I have two close friends at St. Eds in Austin. Thats all. My bad.

Sorry about that...peace to you too!
