I got this from livejournal
- Two women from the Sigma Kappa chapter are injured.
- A brother from Pi Kappa Alpha was killed. (and I can see we ID'd him)

Update on ADPi National Website (and has been posted in the ADPi forum here) - all our sisters at NIU are safe.
Keeping the community of NIU (students, faculty, alumni, and family) in my thoughts and prayers...

My heart skipped a beat when I heard this! I hope recovers from their injuries! My aunt is an Alpha Delta Pi alum from NIU. My thoughts and prayers go out to them!

The first victim has been identified. Dan Parmenter was a member of Pi Kappa Alpha.

Aye, this is very distressing. I don't get a lot of news from back home over here, but this past week, I found out the guy who shot and killed 2 Robert Morris University students in PA about two weeks ago was a high school classmate and close acquaintance.

It is almost as if there were an epidemic of shootings.
Or should I say pandemic? After all, there was a school shooting in Finland last year.
So sad.

As a proud NIU alumna, this hits way too close to home. I had several classes in the lecture hall where the shooting occured. I can't believe this happened...

There's at least one GC ADPi at NIU. Hopefully, she's not involved.
ETA: The one sister has graduated already (thank you, Lord!). There's another I haven't heard about yet, though. ThetaGirl218, your poor aunt must be horrified - as are we all!!

This is the fifth school shooting in a week in the U.S.
The shooting followed a string of violence in schools.

According to our HQ site, all members of Tri Sigma's Beta Alpha chapter are safe and accounted for. Thank goodness.
