FORT COLLINS, Colo. - After a bomb threat forced the evacuation of Front Range Community College in Fort Collins on Wednesday, the school said it would reopen at 1 p.m. on Thursday.
School officials said the initial sweep of the school "revealed nothing of concern."
The bomb threat was found on the wall of a bathroom in the student center around 1 p.m. Wednesday, according to college spokesman John Feeley.
Feeley said because it was a "credible threat," the school was evacuated and classes were canceled.
Fort Collins police and the Northern Colorado Bomb Team searched the school. No devices were found, police said.
Classes at the Prospect Center and the Community Learning Center in Loveland were unaffected by the closure and will be held as normally scheduled on Thursday.
