<p>Near the end of the school year, some students decided to get into a party to get drunk. Afterwards, they decided on some wrong choices.</p>

<p>First of all this story was really awfully worded, or maybe I’m just tired and confused. Was he by himself, or not? Kind of important detail.</p>
<p>Secondly, most “incidents” happen when the student is coming home alone at night. Gotta say, I am an idiot as far as safety is concerned–I’m a girl and walk home by myself when it’s dark–but I’ve been fine. The one stupid thing I would NEVER do is go home alone while drunk. Not saying that’s what this kid did, but in general, if you use common sense, you should be fine.</p>
<p>No campus is immune from crime or “incidents” such as this; so be careful wherever you live or attend college. Some interesting links from that article about how Case is at the forefront of some important advances:</p>

<p>I only include these links to show that Case offers opportunities in areas that are becoming increasingly important in the future. There are opportunities there that are not available just anywhere.</p>
