This is a university, with thousands of students spread over hundreds of acres and dozens of buildings. I'm not sure if there is a better way to inform the entire student and faculty body of danger than e-mail.
I heard something about text messaging.

The medical examiner said each victim had no less than three bullets in them. Even the survivors.

Generally speaking only 10 due to the Federal High Capacity magazine ban from several years ago. Scratch that. I just checked Wikipedia. That ban expired in 2004. In that case, without knowing the exact model of the guns, I'd go with the high end. A Glock 19 (9mm) has a 15 round capacity. A Glock 18 can use a high capacity magazine that carries 33 rounds, but I doubt he had one of these. The magazine is gigantic and doesn't look like it could easily be hidden. As for a 22, those can have as many as 18 rounds. So the two guns combined along with 2 clips for each weapon to reload with could have killed 33 people.
How many were wounded?
