    I’m frustrated with CSUN. My daughter was in class when this happened and her teacher made them leave class. So she went to the library, which I guess might actually be a great place to be because the guy was seen leaving. But really, for safety’s sake, shouldn’t they have stayed in class? I’m getting recorded messages alerting me to the situation and telling people to stay out of the area while my daughter is sitting IN the library and no one is on alert and all she sees outside is one police car.
