East Lansing MIMarch 21 2012 — Michigan State University police are investigating what led to the death of an 18-year-old student Monday on campus.
The student, identified as Olivia Nicole Pryor, was found unresponsive by her roommate in South Hubbard Hall about 10 a.m., MSU police said in a statement.
A cause of death has not been determined, but alcohol is believed to be a factor, university police said. An autopsy was planned.
According to her university listing, Pryor was a journalism freshman from Roseville.
As news of the death spread Monday night, friends filled Twitter with condolences.
“RIP Olivia Pryor that was my little cheer-team sister in high school may God be with her family… so sad,” one user wrote. Another user wrote: “She was a sweet girl I remember her little high pitched laugh. My heart is with her family!”
The death is the third at MSU in recent months.
