If you were wondering what the wackiness impact of the hotline thing was, it was apparently this wacky:

The hotline typically receives about 5 calls per week, according to ASU.

The school said it doesn't believe any people who needed the phone service were affected.

Already seeing the comments (facebook, etc.) about how it musta been one of those high capacity assault vans.

Dead is dead, don't matter how you get there. And as I speak from experience, getting hit by a car at speed may not poke supersonic holes in you, but it shatters bones and organs quite effectively.
