position is unlike that of a

Students are a mure hotnopv

"V1 v life revolves around

urnturm working un a college
eampus "I hrme a student
perspective to js die me I
show the teasun we need |xi

Draytiwi doesn't Ixdieve
that the several cautionary

unnecessarily tearful even

I Vaytun admits that his
philosophy rc-pardine law en
forcemcnt differs from some
students'
The OPS director suggests
that the decline in enrpll
metit. rather than tear, has
resulted in. there Iving fewer
jxs'ple out on the campus at
night. “To say that those tit
ers c a use people not to go
out at night is taking a nar
row viewpoint,’ IVayton

recent flier sent to all dorm
students reads "Walk with a

I it explained that tire
crime rate tin the campus is
indicative of the crime in the
city that surt -unds it. Me also
cautioned that violent crime
statistics between different
schools ate misleading 1 arg
er schools don't necessarily
have higher crime rates, just
more crime because the stu
dent jMj'ulaturns are larger
1 Vayton would like to
have all resident halls locked

last year, residents now vote
on the lockup [silkies of
their individual dorms. "I
think .’4 hour lockup is not
only necessary, it's im|x*ra
tive he slid and elaborated
by explaining that resident
halts are students’ homes and
homes start at the front door
1 )rayton cites cases m
which non resident students
from off campus housing en
tend dorms, ostensibly to use
laundry facilities “I'd like tii
think everyKxly has a golden
heart and n. ikviy wvxild
sum I, but I’ve Ixvn in this
business too long.”
Mans dorm residents have
expressed feedings iKuit the
inconvenience of living in a
constantly I.eked dorm and
having to constantly carry
keys "Persona! safety comes

He Ixdieves that only full

students to use keys
