Though he did not explicitly say the student was also the gunman in the first shooting, he said he did not believe there was another shooter at large.
Two hours after two people were killed at a dormitory Monday, 30 more people were killed at a campus building by a gunman who finally killed himself with a shot to his head.
"We do know that he was an Asian male - this is the second incident - an Asian man who was a resident in one of our dormitories," university president Charles Steger said in an interview with CNN, confirming for the first time that the killer was a student.
Steger also defended the university's delay in warning students after the first shooting. Some students said their first notice came in an e-mail at 9:26 a.m., after the second shooting had begun.

My heart goes out to the students and their families. I do wonder why the students weren't notified immediately after the first shooting and why the school wasn't locked down? I also have to question how a student was able to get a gun on campus?I do hope some sort of safegurads will be put in place to prevent something like this from happening again. Shining Celebi is fixing to head off to college this morning and frankly I am afraid. There seem to be so many deranged gunmen in the world today.
