HOUSTON - About 100 people were evacuated from a building at Texas A&M University on Friday after a bomb threat was received, school authorities said.

It was the second bomb threat in the past few days at the university.

School officials were notified of the threat against the university's College Station campus at about 9:25 a.m. local time.

A "Code Maroon" alert was issued and the Clayton Williams Alumni Center of the school was evacuated, according to a report on the website of The Houston Chronicle.

Code Maroon is the university's emergency notification system, which uses multiple methods to contact students, faculty and the community.

Students evacuated from the Clayton Williams Alumni Center were allowed back into the building shortly after 11 a.m., after the school declared the building safe, according to the report.

The university's Kyle Field and adjacent buildings were evacuated on Wednesday after a threatening message was found scrawled on a wall. Nothing was found in that case, either.
