The school's president said the university is mourning Meyer's death.

"Shelby was from Festus, Missouri, a member of the Women's Volleyball Team and had just transferred to Columbia College this semester from Mineral Area Community College," he continued. "We want to extend our sincerest condolences to Shelby's family, friends, and teammates."

Dalrymple described this period as "a very difficult time" for the campus community. On Sept. 13, just a week before Meyers' death, a freshman at Columbia College named Nadria Wright also died off campus after she was fatally shot, officials said.
