College Says Individual in Animal Cruelty Video Is Not a Gettysburg College Student

By Katie Oglesby, Editor-in-Chief

On Friday, Director of Student Rights and Responsibilities Elizabeth Farner sent out a campus-wide email regarding a video showing an act of animal cruelty. Farner said students on campus received threats in response to this video, but that the individual in the video has been misidentified and is not a student at Gettysburg College.

Campus Safety and the Gettysburg Police Department investigated and conducted multiple interviews to ensure no students were involved and it was not made on properties associated with the College. 

Farner said any student who was disturbed by the video should reach out to Counseling Services and College Life if they want to.
