Firearms, air rifles, air pistols, b.b. guns, ammunition and tazers are not permitted on MIT property.....Possessors of firearms are required by law to obtain permission from the Chief of the MIT Campus Police to bring firearms on campus.

searched the building with "negative results," and later said reports of a gunman on the campus were unfounded.

Someone trying to get out of exams? So they call in MWAG on campus, maybe?

I'd say the prankster would get a visit from LE but since it was from MIT the genius probably worked some magic to mask the call.
