<p>The recent armed robberies on the campus of Duke University are deeply troubling. For some reason, Duke does not use security cameras as much as required despite the reality that students are at risk, and it is difficult to do follow up police work without camera evidence. Grateful that Vanderbilt had a picture of the likely getaway vehicle. And security cameras were involved with the evidence of a sexual assault connected to several members of the football team. </p>
<p>I am confident that Vanderbilt is “alarmed” by the failure of their Alert system. They should be alarmed. </p>
<p>that poor guy who dropped his backpack and ran. Smart to drop the backpack. Glad he didn’t get shot.</p>
<p>I post as a parent of a Duke and a Vandy graduate. Vanderbilt does a much better job creating a campus that is safe.</p>
