was found dead<\/a> Thursday evening in a New Hampshire storage facility from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Col. Oscar Perez, the Providence police chief, said.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBrown University President Christina Paxson shares what information she has about the suspected shooter’s ties to the school.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Valente, who was also a student at Brown, is believed to be responsible for both the shooting at Brown and the killing of a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor who was fatally shot in his home Monday, a law enforcement official. Police said that they were investigating whether the two shootings were linked.<\/p>\n
Valente was a graduate student in a PhD program in physics. He enrolled on Sept. 1, 2000, then took a leave of absence in April of 2001 before formally withdrawing in 2003, Brown University President Christina Paxson said.<\/p>\n
The suspect enrolled only in physics classes, Paxson said.<\/p>\n
The majority of physics classes have always been held in the Barus & Holley building, she said, which is the building where the shooting occurred.<\/p>\n
