Student treated after passing out at Wescoe

Emergency workers responded Tuesday to a call of a female University of Kansas student passed out at Wescoe Hall. Witnesses said the student was in a physiology class when she began seizing and fell onto her back. The student was alert and standing when response workers arrived and said she did not hit her head. The student told witnesses she had a history of panic attacks. She was checked at the scene and released.
