LSU sent text alert to evacuate Baton Rouge campus after bomb threat on Monday
2012-09-18
Baton Rouge - A bomb threat was reported Monday on LSU's Baton Rouge campus and the university sent out a text alert asking everyone to "evacuate as calmly and quickly as possible." The alert said to check lsu.edu for updates.

The news hounds gathered for LSU Coach Les Miles' weekly presser also were asked to leave the school's athletic administration building and at around 11:55 a.m. LSU Sports Information Direction Michael Bonnette sent out a news release canceling the presser.

All classes were canceled and cars were streaming off campus creating bumper-to-bumper traffic around the campus.

Last Friday bomb threats were made at the University of Texas at Austin, University of North Dakota in Fargo and the much smaller Hiram College in northeast Ohio.
Either the threats are the terrorist activity, or someone wants to see how we react.

Checking patterns. Don't have to put the bomb on the campus, just the choke points on the egress routes. The bumper-to-bumper traffic becomes the target.
