Though Carson was well known at UNC, neighboring universities are also grieving her loss. North Carolina State University and Duke University issued statements regarding the death of Eve Carson.
 
Dr. James L. Oblinger, N.C. State Chancellor, issued this written statement on the university’s website:
 
The North Carolina State University community joins our sister institution in mourning the loss of Student Body President Eve Carson.  We extend our deepest sympathy to Eve’s parents, family and friends.  Everyone who had the privilege of knowing Eve Carson will certainly feel the great loss of an excellent student leader and a person of remarkable character.
 
Duke President Richard Brodhead also issued the following statement about the loss of Eve Carson:

I have called Chancellor Moeser to share my great sorrow at the tragedy the UNC community has endured with the loss of Eve Carson. The death of a student is always a grievous loss on a campus. In this case, the loss is particularly senseless and appalling.

Duke’s counseling and student affairs staffs are working with their counterparts at Chapel Hill to offer whatever services we can. The hearts of everyone at Duke are with our colleagues at Chapel Hill at this hard time.
 
Police continue to investigate Carson’s murder and search for her killer.
