SMU beefed up security on Monday as a precaution after a threat to “shoot up� the school was discovered scrawled on a classroom chair.
The threat was discovered in a Hyer Hall classroom on April 23. The message said the incident would occur “8-6-07,� which officials interpreted as June 8 or Aug. 6.
The threat is considered “low,� said Kent Best, a university spokesman. Various meetings were being held on campus this week, but the school’s fall semester begins Aug. 23.
