But shouldn’t have been, given that there were only 2 people shot and it appeared to be just an interpersonal conflict involving the shooter, his target, and one person who tried to intervene. Locking down a 2600 acre campus with 25,000 students in that scenario wouldn’t be reasonable — but they absolutely should have sent out an alert with basic info on what had happened, and the fact that the shooter was still on the loose, and a PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SHOOTER (which apparently wasn’t even included with the message that finally went out 2 hours late).

A good comparison would be the first day of classes when they had a loose convict in the area. How did the staff and police react and what was the difference. I haven't looked into this yet, but if I was a lawyer for one of the victims, I sure would.
