After a day of tweets and e-mails, here's the tally of the Minnesota colleges and universities I've been able to reach, and the status of their students studying in Japan.
I think it covers most of the larger institutions, and it appears that only Carleton College and Minnesota State University - Moorhead still need to hear from some students. (Carleton's student was apparently far from the epicenter, and is presumed safe.)
Update: Moorhead spokesman Doug Hamilton said all four students are safe.
Here's the list:
