MONTREAL – Montreal’s Concordia University is warning students in the wake of at least two alleged sexual assaults.

Once arriving at a meeting off-campus, they were allegedly drugged and sexually assaulted.
The university is cautioning students to be extra vigilant when responding to unsolicited social media offers.
The institution’s 45,000 students received a warning Monday.
