The two attended a party Friday night at the Delta Upsilon fraternity. Police say an argument quickly turned physical. Venable allegedly stabbed Bordeaux multiple times.
Police were called to campus at 1:12 a.m. In less than one hour, Police Chief Jim Sheppard said Bordeaux was pronounced dead at Strong Hospital.
Bordeaux, a junior, was a political science major planning to study in Shanghai, China next month according to the university.
University President Joel Seligman called the incident isolated. “Any unexpected death in our community is a shock and a profound loss. Our hearts go out to the family and friends of our student,” said Seligman in an early email to students.
Students on campus were aware of the incident early this afternoon. “I normally feel very safe and I’m very safe and I’m hoping…it’s going to be found out-what has happened,” said a graduate student who wished to remain anonymous.
Members of the University community gathered tonight at 6 p.m. at the Interfaith Chapel to grieve
