    Homicide at Purdue. How does this happen at such a far left progressive institution?
    Really? You got to exploit a kid getting killed for politics points?

    And Purdue is no where near far left. I'm going out on a limb to believe you didn't go there.

    AFAIK, the last murder in the dorms was in Wiley, 1996 if I'm correct, I was student then, it was a rough time. My thoughts go out to the students there.

    EDIT: corrected the data (forgot when I was there!)

    Just reporting a tragedy in the manner professional media does.

    I think it was before 99, I started there in 97 and remember hearing about it. Some dude bludgeoned his wife with a hammer in married student housing when I was there. Maybe a tad after,. Heck I don't remember.

    No, this was a guy that blasted his dorm RA with a shotgun. Wiley Hall, SW3, if I recall. I remember walking by on my way to class watching SWAT line up. Turns out the murderer took himself out after he barricaded himself in his room.

    I think there's a memorial plaque in Cary Quad; I remember going to the candlelight vigil there.

    2014 Cody Cousins shot Andrew Boldt at Purdue.


    I have a feeling that the deal between these two cyber tech students is not regular student crap but orchestrated back in Asia by their handlers.

    The slain was raised in Indianapolis. The accused is an international student.


    Don't think we need tin foil hats for this one - Other than Samsung phones and Hyundais, not much interaction between the S. Kors and the Indians. Last homicide on campus was 8 years back and with no real connection to this one as far as I know.

    I suspect there is at least one person on the admission staff thinking, "Maybe we should have taken that Indiana resident over the foreign applicant in despite the tuition revenue differential".

    Meh...probably not....I know I am often accused of being overy optomistic.

    I don't have any particular issue with international students, but I would object to the massive increase in fractional representation of them as was seen in the UC system. (I'm also not in favor of a $180M library/cafe/study hall)

    Why must you people go all tin-foil hat over mentally unstable people doing what mentally unstable people do? Seriously?

    Wanting to make this some kind of international incident? some of you all really really need to take yourselvs off line and just live a normal life for a few months and detox yourself from damned fox news. Seriously.

    As far as the '96 incident... I kind of grew up adjacent to the POS murderer. Knew one another from the "summer swimming pool".

    That was in a lab - one of my interns was there watching it.

    Kirk was Cousins lawyer, till he killed himself.

    Horrible. I had two shotguns hung on my wall in Married Student Housing in '84-'86. Bet that would go over like a lead balloon now. I feel sad for the families involved, TFat said it about the best I have ever heard, "Why must you people go all tin-foil hat over mentally unstable people doing what mentally unstable people do?"

    Meh. I don't really see anything more remarkable about somebody getting pissed off and shanking someone else in a dorm room than in any other location. Why not in a dorm?
