After reading the follow-up on the scare across campus, I just couldn’t dismiss the idea that it was an “unconscious prank.” We as Cal Poly students were a little on edge as to what the e-mail said, and after reading what the message contained, how can we just accept it just as some sort of Halloween prank/scare? It is one thing sending out a harmless e-mail to give a spook to people, but to use someone else’s e-mail to make DEATH threats toward various students and faculty is very unacceptable. The threat even went as far as to mention the massacre at Virginia Tech, which in itself is just a scary thought. Thirty two college students and faculty members lost their lives that day, which is not really something to joke about. I hope that this issue is handled properly and isn’t to be taken lightly, because I know I don’t want to be on campus with an insecure lunatic ready to “slit our throats'”and repeat such a horrific event.
"Unconscious prank" not so funny
