Baylor’s campus was put on lockdown at 11:50 a.m. on Thursday due to a shelter-in-place alert after a threat on campus. Most students were notified about the lockdown, but multiple students mentioned not receiving the message, and Line Camp attendees did not have their phones.

Spring break is on the horizon. For the Texas Department of Public Safety, this influx of students on the road means trouble.

Starting today, Texas DPS patrols will double in number and focus on high-risk areas at times when crashes are most frequent, according to Texas DPS.

The Texas Department of Public Safety and the Baylor Police Department urge students to avoid going to Mexico for spring break because of the increased violence in the country.
