At least eight historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) in four states, including Florida's in Daytona Beach, or issued shelter-in-place orders on Sept. 11 in response to "terroristic threats," according to reports.
Alabama State University, Clark Atlanta University, Hampton University, Morehouse College, Southern University, Spelman College, Virginia State University and B-CU all shut down after unspecified threats were made, according to statements from the educational institutions.
The threats come on the anniversary of the terror attacks in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001 and a day after conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at an appearance in Utah.
There have been no reports yet from the other HBCUs in Florida: Edward Waters University in Jacksonvil
