A search is underway in Vermont after a woman vanished from her college campus last week.

Smith, a senior, is from California. Additional details regarding her disappearance were not provided.
“If there’s any concern, or if Lia thought she was in trouble for anything, she’s not; nobody’s in trouble for this,” Middlebury police Sergeant Nathan Hayes told The Middlebury Campus. “We just truly want to find out where she is and make sure she’s safe.”
Smith was described as standing 5 feet 11 inches tall, weighing about 160 pounds, and having brown hair and blue eyes.
