Over this past weekend, three major crimes took place on and around Pitt’s campus and on Duquesne University’s campus. Students who heard the news from friends and family members or social media applications like X, formerly known as Twitter, eagerly awaited for Pitt’s Emergency Notification System to tell us to stay clear of the sites. But no notifications ever came.

About 100 students gathered at the Cathedral of Learning to host a “die-in” following Pitt’s delay in sending emergency alerts during a recent hoax shooter incident on campus.
