REXBURG- Brigham Young University-Idaho threatened with shooting after a BYU-Idaho student posted on a popular social media app threatening to “shoot up the school” only to be quickly taken into custody by the Rexburg Police Department. Oct. 26 at about noon, BYU-Idaho was nearly put into danger after 19-year-old Joshua David Tanner posted on the social media app Yik Yak about potentially shooting the school. “I’m going to shoot up BYUI Monday,” Tanner said in his post. When Yik Yak users create an account, they agree to specific rules which include not using the app to bully or target others, and that if a user is to come across any type of post that is threatening or offensive to others, they should down vote the post, or report it. Within a minute of the post users of the app quickly reported the threat. The post was also reposted through a screen shot on twitter making Twitter users also aware of the threat. A few hours after the threat was posted, Tanner contacted the police about creating it, and was taken into custody to be questioned about it. The app Yik Yak works anonymously. Users have the ability to write posts and send them anonymously around the area you are in. “Yik Yak is meant to allow anyone to connect and share information with others without actually having to know them,” according to the app description. Although the app does not reveal anything about the user, according to policy, the app has the right to share ones IP address or any other…

I believe I am more of a follower than a doer in this case. Also, I would really enjoy working for a company that is doing projects using the cloud. The cloud is the future of the way we doing anything on the internet. If you think about more people have cell phones than computers. I do think the capstone course did lack a few things. I really enjoy taking the online test and this course had none of that. The online test helps me in knowing what’s right from wrong. Having the tests make you…

As a high school senior, this is the first Economics class I’ve ever taken. I didn’t know what to expect at all. Talking to most of my classmates didn’t exactly help either. I’ve heard a lot of different opinion about the class, but I knew I had to experience it myself before making a judgment. Some people have told me it was a fun and interesting class while others have told me it’s the most boring class they’ve ever taken. I thought I would be able to compare this class to one of the Social…

self-contained and Stage 1 and Stage 2 of a module received minimum supervision from the author who is the trainer. Only at Stage 3, lecturers discuss face-to-face real-world cases with the trainer. In LeP, the pace to progress from one module to another is usually slowed at Stage 2 (forum) and Stage 3 (face-to-face).
