In the most devastating wildfires in California history, thousands of houses and structures have been destroyed throughout Sonoma County. Approximately 30 students and faculty have lost their homes.

Sonoma State University Police Services on Wednesday were investigating what they believed were possible human remains that were found by an employee. Police say they were alerted to the discovery shortly after noon. The remains were found in a rugged area in what police say appeared to be a shallow grave west of Parking Lot M, near Sonoma State's Green Music Center.
