Several students who work as assistants in the building said they had been made aware of bomb threats, though neither HUPD or William James Hall officials would confirm them.

In an unrelated incident yesterday, an hour examination for Literature and Arts A-18: "Fairy Tales" in the Fogg Art Museum's Norton Room was delayed when a bomb threat was called in just before noon.
Police searched the bags of students as they entered. The exam began
without incident, 30 minutes later.
