One is dead and three are wounded after a confrontation outside of a residence hall causes a student to shoot four people in what has been the second reported “mass” shooting in a month.

18-year-old Steven Jones produced a handgun and shot four students after it is reported that two groups of males took part in a fight outside one of the residence halls.

The Arizona Board of Regents prohibits people from carrying guns around campus, but they are allowed to stow them in their cars.

This incident comes on the same day that President Barack Obama was scheduled to meet with families of the victims of the events at Umpqua Community College in Oregon, a shooting which took place just 8 days ago.

In a statement President Obama made regarding Oregon, he said “Somehow this has become routine. The reporting is routine. My response here at this podium ends up being routine.”

For many that hear about these two school shootings in 8 days, it is hard to think of it as anything but routine.

OSWEGO, N.Y. – Students and faculty on SUNY Oswego’s campus took time to talk to Veterans in honor of Veterans Day over a bite to eat. There were a wide-variety of foods to choose from including pasta salad and wraps. Soft beverages and water were also served. The purpose of this luncheon was so that members on campus had the chance to show their appreciation.

Dean’s Office for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences’ Adrienne McCormick who works in said the luncheon was an important event for the campus.

“It’s very important to learn the sacrifices that people have made for our country. So i’m at the luncheon to show my support to those who served,” McCormick said.

Tired of being an average everyday student? Potterwatch is the gateway to a bright new magical world for you. Potterwatch is the newly founded club on campus that specializes in various fun-filled events inspired by the works of J.K Rowling.

The club is run by the headmaster, Marianna Butera. Activities this club specializes in are debates, trivia nights, pot locks, viewing parties and quidditch.

On October 12, the first big event for Potterwatch is quidditch, which will occur outside of Lee Hall between the two softball diamonds from 10 am to 3 pm.

The game quidditch consists of nine people on each team: one seeker, three chasers, two beaters, one keeper, and two substitutes who can sub in for any players wanting to have a break except for the seeker.

The point of the game is for the chasers to score through one of three hoops as many times as possible with a quaffle (volleyball) while the beaters throw bludgers (dodgeballs) at them. If a chaser gets hit by a beater, they must drop their quaffle and run to the end of the field. The keeper’s job is to defend the goals and the seeker is responsible for chasing the snitch. The snitch in this case is a person who runs around in yellow and if he is caught, the team receives thirty points. Remember this is all done by riding on brooms.

The first place team for the tournament receives a pizza party, the second place team receives a dozen doughnuts, and the third place team earns candy bars for each team member.

Money proceeds from events like this get sent to a charity called Lumos which was cofounded by J.K Rowling. Lumos works to help the millions of children in institutions worldwide regain their right to a family.

So what are you waiting for? Get out there and show off some magic!
