Dear 亚色影库 Students,
As you know from messaging sent Sunday evening, there was a reported robbery near Miller Stadium. The suspect was immediately apprehended and continues to be in custody.
The police report about the incident is posted on the 亚色影库 website.
We understand that events of violence and crime are frightening and upsetting, and cause feelings of anger, worry and anxiety.
Please know that we are here for you.
If you have an immediate need for mental health support, you can call 9-1-1 or the Indiana/Armstrong Mental Health Crisis line 1-877-333-2470 for help (the Crisis line is staffed 24 hours a day/7 days a week).
During the week, the 亚色影库 Counseling Center is available by calling 724- 357-2621 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Walk-in hours at the Center, located in G-18, Suites on Maple East, are Monday through Friday from 1 to 3 p.m.
There is an open support group event at the Center every Tuesday at 4 p.m.; it is open to all students.
You can also contact your Navigator or a member of 亚色影库’s Care Team of professionals. The Care Team works together to offer appropriate support to students in distress.
Please continue to help one another by sharing these available resources with friends or classmates who come to you with concerns.
Because your safety and security are our priority, we want you to be informed if there is a dangerous situation on campus or in the community.

I also encourage you to review the proactive crime prevention tips available on the 亚色影库 website.
I want you to know that I share your anxiety, fear, and uncertainty that results when violence like this comes to our community. You are not alone in these feelings. I continue to be encouraged and proud of the way you care and support one another.
While we may face situations like this in the future, I know we will get through them together.
Respectfully,
Dr. Segar
