One day during my sophomore year at OU, there were reports of an active shooter on campus.
I was leaving class on the South Oval and I could tell something was up, so I walked over to the OU Daily offices where I was a reporter at the time. For those who don’t know, the Daily office is secured behind bulletproof glass and requires card-swipe entry. I called my parents and told them not to worry, I was in the safest place on campus.
Then my editor walked up and told me to get out there and report.
