According to Sage College President Susan C. Scrimshaw, Dawn Hochsprung, the principal who was killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings, was a doctoral student at the college.

Hochsprung, according to a report from CNN, had just finished implementing a new security system within the school, requiring everyone that was not a part of the school to ring a bell and be monitored visually before being granted entry into the building with nearly all, including parents of students, being required to provide identification.
