Globe and Mail: York profs say they weren’t told about threats for three days
A man claiming to be a student expelled from York University made threatening phone calls to Toronto police this week, saying he’d “blow up the school” and shoot people on campus, citing a professor he blamed for his expulsion, officers say.
But yesterday, three days after the first threat, the York University Faculty Association, representing professors, hadn’t been told that one of its members was directly threatened.
“We weren’t informed as to the exact details of the threat,” Arthur Hilliker, YUFA’s president, said in a statement to The Globe and Mail.
