Two New York University doctoral students who arrived in Haiti just a day before the earthquake have been located.
After a tense few days, word reached NYU that Nathalie Pierre, 24, of Brooklyn and Greg Childs, from South Carolina, were found safe in Haiti.
School officials say they were flown from Port-au-Prince to the Dominican Republic by the US Coast Guard.
An NYU spokesman issued a statement late Thursday, saying, "The University is very grateful for all the assistance we received from the State Department and other government agencies and elected officials. We're overjoyed to know they are coming home, safe and sound. This is a very happy ending to this story."
