cnn that two preliminary tests said it wasn't ricin and one did (they still keep saying RICIN FOUND ON CAMPUS in headlines yet at the same time say two tests said it was nothing) but they did say noone has been showing signs of illness.
A roll of quarters was contaminated. Some coed doing laundry got sick and it was traced to the quarters she was using to do laundry.
Goddamn aggies !!!!
Ricin Discovered In University Dorm
A student and her roommate are being treated for potential exposure to ricin.
Austin, TX -- A University of Texas student found a substance that's tested positive for the potentially deadly poison in a roll of quarters she was using to do her laundry at her dorm. Officials said the quarters had been
in the students' dorm room for several months.
She told university police that she found the chunky powder on Thursday, and preliminary tests for ricin returned positive yesterday.
A doctor at the university said neither person being treated has shown symptoms, which can include anything from difficulty breathing, fever, cough, nausea and sweating to severe vomiting and dehydration.
The university said the dorm has been sanitized and inspected.

Ricin is actually harmless unless you inhale it or ingest it.
Don't lick quarters and you'll be fine.
