ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan says it's banning purses, diaper bags and all other bags of any size from Michigan Stadium as a security measure.
The school said Wednesday it will require "written permission of a medical professional" before allowing any bags into the stadium for Saturday's game against Indiana.
A recent arrest in Colorado related to a terrorism investigation has touched off national warnings.
Michigan says in a statement that "adjusting security measures is the prudent thing to do."
School safety Deputy Chief Charlie Noffsinger says Michigan hasn't received information on any specific threats but says it acted after consulting with federal officials.
The university also encourages spectators to arrive early.
