1. Yep, hundreds of students trapped in dorm. At least one is dead.

5. Xavier of Ohio (Cincy) is better known, but there's a Xavier of La. too
and it's in a low-lying area of mid-city N.O., miles from the Bush** photo op, so probably no NG today. :(

It is a historically black Catholic institution, perhaps the only one of its kind in the U.S. I attended a peace rally there before Poppy Bush's Oil War I.

7. Yes, I heard there are 400 students trapped with maybe one dean.
Some one may have died. I am just sick. My kids are away at school, and thinking of those trapped kids and their anxious families has brought me to tears.

There doesn't seem to be much news about them.
