Washington College cancels classes until further notice, sends all students home

CHESTERTOWN, Md. (ABC7) — Washington College said Tuesday morning that the college will be closed until further notice, in the light of the ongoing law enforcement investigation.

This announcement comes not long after the college announced that classes would be canceled Tuesday, "in the interest of caution and due to new information received from law enforcement."

The college said in a release that all students who can leave campus and return home should do so after they check in with a Washington College staff member. The college is advising students who live off-campus to stay in their off-campus housing or return home. "Students who are unable to return home should attempt to travel with a friend, if possible, or should stay in their residence hall until arrangements can be made," The release read.

Inform the public of this great threat. If you can close a school indefinatly then its pretty severe. If I was a parent I would be very upset.And I would never send my kid to Washington College.

Washington College is acting extraordinarily responsible in this situation. I would happily send my child there.
