Apparently this isn't exactly a new thing at TSU. As best I can tell though, both shootings though were targeted rather than random/spree in nature. The only thing they have in common with Oregon is that a gun was involved.

I've been told..headline misleading...but still...it's student housing/apartment along side of the school and a student doing the shooting to another student.
I saw it on my computer through Yahoo news through Reuters.

If you put attribute that kind of power to the president, you are doomed to be disappointed. The problems today were decades in the making.

SGT Jeremiah B. - I do not attribute significant power to a lame duck President by any means :-)
In conjunction with the next President every member of the US House is up for reelection and 1/3 of the Senate.
The President has the bully pulpit which helps either calm the nation, divide the nation, or unify the nation to act. Our current President has sometimes unified and inspired the nation; but, unfortunately many times his use of the bully pulpit has helped fuel divisions within this nation.
The next House will have significant opportunity to work with the next administration. Hopefully there will be much common ground to work on and through :-)

SGM Erik Marquez Thanks for providing some insight to this. I so wish the media would get off the headline/ratings craze and report the news.

It looks like this was next to the campus but not on, the campus. The media is hyping it up because of all recent "campus" shootings. Also, some food for thought, this person may have been a student and the victim may have been a student but this happened in an apartment near the school, not on school grounds.

Still, why are students getting shot so much these days?

Sgt Kelli Mays - One could ask, Why are adults shooting adults? Why are teens shooting teens? Being a student has nothing to do with it. There is a deeper issue behind it.
