I took Explore with a bunch of Etas in Louisville. They were absolutely awesome. It just breaks my heart whenever anything like this happens.

NIU just hosted Region 6 regionals in October. Brothers from Lambda Phi (Eastern Michigan) took a walk around campus and walked right by where all this happened. It's still unbelievable that we were there a few months ago.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the brothers and students at NIU

Here is a list of the victims -- the profiles are very brief and APO is not mentioned, but hopefully this will reassure you about the people you know: http://chronicle.com/news/article/3971/profiles-of-the-victims .

I've cross-referenced the list with the national membership database, and no one turned up as a brother. I wouldn't rule out whether any of them are pledges yet, but I'll await word from the official channels (e.g. Maggie Katz, Mark Stratton, Rob Coop, Bob London).
