No injuries have been reported, the school said.

The suspect, who has not been arrested, was described as a man with "bleached" hair with red or orange highlights carrying a red backpack and wearing a black shirt and black pants, police said.

The university said that people should avoid the Clark Kerr and Hillside campuses and stay indoors if they are in the vicinity.
