The vigil for the 24-year-old Le is scheduled for 8 p.m. Monday at the Ivy League university. The Yale Daily News says an e-mail to the Yale community invites participants to "bring a candle and join us in solidarity."

Police said Sunday they discovered a body hidden inside a wall at the medical laboratory where Le worked. Authorities have not identified the body, but say they are presuming it is Le, who is originally from Placerville, Calif.

Le was last seen on Tuesday in the building. Police are treating the case as a homicide.
