Evergreen State Closes After ‘Direct Threat’

Evergreen State College has been the site of intense debates in recent weeks over issues of race, safety and free speech. On Thursday, the college evacuated its campus and urged everyone to leave, and for those living in residence halls to remain there. The college said it received a "direct threat" to campus safety, but did not provide additional details. Late Thursday, the college announced that it would remain shut down today.
