OXFORD, Ohio -- Miami University in shock as one of their students may have died of the swine flu.

A Massachusetts newspaper reports 18-year old freshman Matt Healy from Boston died Saturday at a Cincinnati hospital.

The paper says the cause was the H-1-N-1 virus but so far there is no confirmation from the coroner's office or the university.

Healy reportedly became ill shortly after arriving on campus in August.

Just last week, Miami grad Kimberly Young of Oxford died. Swine flu suspected but her family now says it was viral pneumonia.
