Hey everyone. We have a very serious event going on in West Lafayette as there is a shooting situation in the engineering section of campus. If you're students out there, stay safe, as the place is on lockdown right now. Here are some tweets of what we do know. If you want, use this as a forum to pass around new and stay connected with folks on campus.
Once again, stay safe:
Anyone near the Purdue campus, please stay safe. Shooter apparently still out and about. Prayers go out to all those around.
