This just says that someone called in a bomb threat, aren't those common? It's a school during finals. And I just realised I'm wasting far too much precious time reading the internet.

It should be noted that this is happening in the middle of finals. I would lean heavily towards this being false threat by a student who didn't study.

You'd think a Harvard student would be smart enough to realize that the criminal consequences of such an act far outweigh the negatives of failing a test...

A similar event happened last year at the University of Pittsburgh, although the threats went on for months.
