College leaders on Uvalde shooting: ‘unacceptable and heartbreaking’

A sign reads "Robb Elementary School" in Uvalde, Texas

College campuses reacted with sorrow and anger this week after an 18-year-old killed 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, before law enforcement officers fatally shot him.

Students and faculty gathered at the University of Oregon on Wednesday at 11:32 a.m., the same time the shooting started in Texas the day before, reported The Register-Guard, of Eugene, Oregon. The dean of the university’s college of education said she had no script and told the newspaper she had trouble as her own children went to school that day.
