Ambulances were at the Spori building this morning responding to a medical emergency. Near the end of an art 101 lecture a student appeared to be drowsy and faint.

"All of the sudden she just bolts and shakes and her head kind of falls back as she turned white," said Matthew Geddes the course instructor.

The class was ending when Geddess saw the student having seizer like symptoms. He knew it was out of the ordinary and sought help immediately.

Lightheartedly Geddes said, "Well this is a real typical chain of events; I start talking and students start passing out."

Geddes informed INEWS that EMS was on the scene within minutes of placing the call.  Then after providing immediate medical relief EMS took the student away by ambulance.

No further details were given about the event to protect the patience privacy
