School officials are reporting a death on campus at Rockingham Hall.

The identity of the person has not yet been released, but campus police have sent out an email to all students informing them of the death.

One student who lives in Rockingham Hall, Alex Srisuwan, says, "I was pretty surprised about it. I didn't really know anything had happened. And I was in my room when it happened, and so I was really surprised that I didn’t hear anything about it or anything until I got the email later that night.”

Officials are waiting for autopsy results to determine what caused the death.
School officials say there is no risk to the community.

I'm still in shock of what has happened to Ryan. I was his roommate for the year last year, and can't believe that this has happened. I can just still remember seeing him no longer than a week ago. I still don't see him as someone who would have done something like that. He was a good kid, and just hope his parents are doing well.
