That's definitely not true if you count rape. That said, it's unlikely a key card would cut down on that. Also, there has been some burglary over the years. It's arguable a key card system would cut down on that, assuming at least some of the offenders were not other students.

Williams student Julia Cordray was able to paper seven dorms with Hitler's birthday celebration posters because her magnetic card allowed her uncontrolled access to ALL Williams College dorms...something that would not be possible with Swarthmore's "antiquated" key lock system.

First of all this is a ridiculous argument. Secondly, it's false. A student who wanted to paper Swarthmore dorms with nazi propaganda would be able to, what with the current system of door propping in place.
