Most Michigan State University students returned to classes on Monday, following a break because of last week’s murder of three students, The Detroit News reported.
The News reported that most faculty members devoted their classes to giving students an opportunity to talk about the tragedy.
There were memorials, therapy dogs and a visible police presence on campus.
Heather Sertic, who graduated from Michigan State in 1999 and whose daughter is a junior, spearheaded the effort to welcome students to campus Monday.
