On September 4, 2024, a Quinnipiac University student posted a pipe bomb threat on the anonymous social media app YikYak targeting a women's bathroom in the Carl Hansen Student Center. The building and adjacent Tator Hall were evacuated, and the Regional Bomb Squad responded but found no device. A 22-year-old student was arrested within hours and charged with first-degree breach of peace.

Confirmed wording is transcribed character-for-character from a primary source. Use Verify this quote under each message to open that source in a new tab and compare the text yourself.
Some messages in this sequence are documented (their existence, timing, and channel are sourced) but their exact wording is not preserved in the public record. Those entries appear as placeholders; only confirmed text is displayed.
