Mirror: Cyberattack hits major university with pictures of Donald Trump

Columbia University has been dealing with “widespread outages” since 7 a.m. Tuesday, which has prevented students from accessing any online platforms.

The Columbia Spectator reports that several screens were taken over and displayed images deemed “unrelated to University activities.” At least one dorm television screen showed a picture of President Donald Trump.

Police had no information as of 4:15 p.m. to update the community on the situation.

An investigation is still ongoing, though a University spokesperson told the Spectator that it was able to debunk posts circulating online from a group claiming responsibility for the cyberattack. It is not clear what post or group they were referring to at press time.

Suck it up, fellas! King Donald is Columbia’s new Deal Leader!
