Something's making BU students sick to their stomachs

BU Today reports health officials are trying to figure out what's been giving students vomiting, diarrhea and stomach pains over the past few days. At least a dozen have sought medical attention, but more could be affected:

Virginia Barney (CFA'14) says her English class, which normally has 25 students, had only half that number this week.

Doctors say sick students should sip water or Gatorade to avoid dehydration and that everybody on campus should be washing their hands often with soap and water, especially after using the restroom and before preparing food.

Sounds like Four Loko. The ban didn't come soon enough for certain Terriers.

It happens when they realize they are paying Harvard tuition for a UMass Dartmouth education.

Joke or not. I resent this comment greatly.

City Council members need to call a press conference at BU where they all stumble over each other to be the first to call for a total ban on Norovirus within city limits!

I'm sure that will work - to get attention.

I'll put five bucks on Norovirus, a former guest at the Harvard Faculty Club--maybe it's slumming.

Maybe sick they could only split points with Merrimack?
