Welcome back to The State. Many of you have already heard about the tragedy that occurred on our beautiful campus here at Michigan State University. For those who are wondering, the community of MSU experienced a mass shooting in different areas on campus. 3 people have been confirmed dead and 5 people with severe injuries.

With this occurrence, we are continuing to collect ourselves. MSU classes, sporting events, and all other activities have been canceled until Thursday and classes will be canceled for the remainder of the week which leads to the canceling of The State podcast for the rest of the week.

Though it is no longer an active situation, information from MSU Police can be found at police.msu.edu and reporting can be found from our news partners at The State News at statenews.com.

Our hearts go out to all those who were injured, deceased, and of course those who are traumatized and scared by this occurrence.

Continue to be safe and comfort those around you spartan nation.
