Another shooting on a college campus--this one closer to home. Northern Illinois University is just three hours up the road. There are probably more than a few students from the Macomb area studying up there, and many students studying at WIU have friends at NIU. It is a somber night down here as I'm sure some of my own students are waiting for word from their friends in DeKalb. However, we are comforted to hear that a fellow economist blogger, Stephen Karlson (Cold Spring Shops), is ok.
The Northern Star has wall-to-wall coverage.
UPDATE: The Chicago Tribune has much more.
