Update to Campus Security Alert

by Betsy Chapman

This message is a follow up to last night’s message (April 29) regarding a potential threat to two specific students by a family member.  The University Police Department in conjunction with local law enforcement has located the family member, who has since been placed in the care of medical professionals at a local hospital.

No immediate threat to members of the campus community is perceived by University officials, but the University Police Department is taking precautions.

University Police will continue to monitor the situation.

Gatehouse operations have returned to normal.

As always, University Police asks that you report any suspicious activity immediately by calling 336-758-5911.

Wake Forest Communications and External Relations will communicate further to the campus community about this situation if conditions warrant it.
