    Unhappy Maroon Alerk.....

    major constructions going on....

    I'm sure it has something like a gas leak -- the Library has been under reconstruction for months

    MAROON ALERT Safety concern near Library. Immediately evacuate Library, Carpenter, Swalm, Hand, Health Center, Etheredege and Drill Field

    Remember Hand is the Chemistry Department.....

    BAD INFO RECEIVED..... Maroon alert should tell what is going on when they post.....

    No shit. The alerts aren't saying anything other than "evacuate" these areas....the reason I made a thread asking what's going on. I'm in Mass, so obviously I don't know what the **** is happening.

    Gas leak is what I'm hearing from several people. Someone tried to start a bomb threat rumor, but that's all but been debunked. I was by the library this morning and crews are digging on engineering row right by the library.

    I got bad info too. My sil works on campus and was told it was a gas leak. Seems like every time there is a maroon alert there is a lot of bad info out there. I guess that comes with the internet age we live in.
    Transfer orIentation was today but I'm sure most of them are off campus.

    Wonder if that was a cover story to keep panic down?
