Nordenberg Releases Another
Statement on Pitt-Oakland Bomb Threats
University of Pittsburgh Chancellor Mark Nordenberg has released another statement concerning the bomb threats on the university’s main campus.
He said university officials understand the threats are a source of heightened anxiety, not only for those living and working on campus but also for their family members.
Nordenberg said they appreciate the cooperation and support that have come from throughout the entire University community and from their many friends. He said they do believe progress is being made in the ongoing investigation and look forward to the time, hopefully in the near-term, when they can put this set of challenges behind them.
Pittsburgh’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is heading the investigation. The university is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
Nordenberg added that some people think the university is being too cautious by evacuating and searching the buildings in response to each threat. Others, he said, believe the campus should be closed.
US Attorney David Hickton says the university “is exercising appropriate regard for safety . . . while refusing to allow such threats to paralyze the entire University community.”
