This is the best link I can find but apparently the entire University of Texas campus in Austin is being evacuated due to a bomb threat.

Re: University of Texas Being Evacuated

Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

Yep, yep. We got evacuated at UT, and they're checking all of the buildings right now.

Holy ****, how long will that take?
 
Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

According to CNN, the Texas caller had claimed to be with Al Qaeda.
 
Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

Well, no bombs on campus. The threat was either an Al Qaeda scare or somebody had an exam they didn't study for.

The Austin PD should investigate every UT student enrolled in 10 am classes that have exams scheduled for today.

It doesn't take long, they have half of the Austin PD on campus right now.
 
Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

Last NDSU update I see is from 40 minutes ago, says employees/students were required to leave campus by 10:15 a.m.

... and every faculty member with a curriculum committee meeting scheduled for 10 a.m. today.
 
Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

It's a Friday during football season and they play an SEC team tomorrow (even if it is just Ole Miss). Probably not more than a few dozen students on campus to begin with.

They're that bad, eh?
 
Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

The bomb threat is all clear. Classes have been cancelled today, on campus activities will resume at 5 p.m. (ex. volleyball game.)

What about ND State?

But seriously, assuming this is related to all the "how dare you diss Mohammed" riots: How many of these schools have home football games tomorrow?
 
Re: University of Texas and North Dakota State Evacuated Due to Bomb Threats

NDSU is clear. 20k evacuated, nothing found.
