Solanum Virus Loose in East Lansing

3/1/12 BREAKING NEWS: Strange behavior at Michigan State University last week has been linked to a new virus, called
Solanum, being researched in university labs. University officials are strongly advising that students remain in their
homes and away from anyone who may be infected. Those who have been infected can be distinguished from others by
a distinct red mark on their hands. Anyone with these red marks is infected.

Zombies must infect at least one other person per day in order to stay alive. It is expected that the virus will spread next
to neighboring towns and cities.

Zombies Present in Local High Schools

3/5/12 BREAKING NEWS: Due to the high number of MSU Interns at J.W. Sexton High School, the local Big Reds have
been quarantined in their classrooms to decrease the chance of Solanum spreading to the rest of Lansing. Students in
math classes may be at a higher risk, since the virus has been extremely active amongst math teachers at MSU. Classes
that should be extremely cautious are Ms. O’Rielly’s 1st and 6th hour classes, as well as Ms. Krueger’s 3rd and 4th hour.
