A num­ber of stu­dents became aware of the inci­dent via Facebook and Twitter. Ferris’ offi­cial Facebook page was flooded with con­do­lence mes­sages for Davis.

Messages such as, “The whole Clark Hall misses you. You are loved not only by Clark Hall but the whole uni­ver­sity,” were posted under the announce­ment on Ferris’ Facebook page.

Anthony Brock, sopho­more in tele­vi­sion dig­i­tal media pro­duc­tion said he was shocked when he heard the news while at FLITE library.

“I didn’t want to jump to any con­clu­sions because no one had details. But I was sad in find­ing out that her room­mate had found her there,” Brock said.

He added, “My prayers go out to her and her family.”

Davis was found unre­spon­sive by her room­mate. Authorities reported that a pre­lim­i­nary inves­ti­ga­tion points to no signs of foul play.

There had been rumors spread­ing on cam­pus regard­ing the cause of Davis’ death. Martin Bledsoe, Chief of Ferris Department of Public Safety, said it is too early in the inves­ti­ga­tion to deter­mine the cause of death. An autopsy will be con­ducted at Sparrow Hospital in Lansing.
