Earthquake!

Yes, it’s another slow summer news day, but I thought Cornellians might be interested to hear that Ithaca residents– and students taking summer classes– suffered through felt the distant effects of a 5.5 magnitude earthquake yesterday afternoon. Everyone seems to be fine, though. Here’s one account from the scene:

I was at work and didn’t feel anything. People told me later and, thinking back, I might have felt something, but it may have also been a bus outside.

That’s from Rob Morrissey ’12.
