CHICAGO -- Northwestern University officials confirmed Monday the body of a man pulled from Lake Michigan is that of a missing student.
The Cook County medical examiner's office identified the body to be 20-year-old Trevor J. Boehm, but did not immediately give a cause of death. The first-year student from Monument, Colo., was studying at the university's School of Communications.
He was last seen alive on Nov. 5.
A passer-by found Boehm's jacket and some of his personal belongings on Nov. 9 on rocks along the Lake Michigan shoreline in north suburban Evanston. On Sunday, a body was spotted in the lake.
Northwestern President Henry Bienen says Boehm's death affects the entire campus.
A private vigil has been planned for students.
