SMU goes BOOM

Welcome to the Saint Martin’s Campus, where the fun never stops, even when it means blowing shit up. Komo got the damn story before we even issued our official press release.

Old Main is the main building on campus (as you may have guessed from the name). The O’Grady Library, where I work, is near Old Main, and the coolest building on campus anyway, so it filled up with displaced students, faculty, and administration in the blink of an eye.

Even so, things have quieted down a bit already. It’s kind of amazing how fast life can just … move on. Not that this was a tragedy by any means, more of an incident. Just allow me my little dramatic moment.

edit: The Seattle PI is a little slow, but they’re doing their part.

The Olympian chimes in.

I wouldn’t make light of it, but no one was seriously injured. Even so, my condolences to everyone who had flying glass shooting at their heads. That can’t be fun.
