More than two dozen tents had been pitched at the school's downtown campus as of Sunday afternoon, with a steady stream of visitors stopping by to drop off donations and supplies.

McGill said Monday morning that the number of people who have set up tents on campus has tripled since Saturday, and many of them, if not the majority, are not members of the school community.

It was 20 years ago that Jennifer Hudson was eliminated from American Idol.

Although it was a tough day for Hudson, it was the start of something she could never have expected.
