Fordham security was so helpful to my kid!

My daughter was out with a friend (not a Fordham student) who had too much to drink on an empty stomach and couldn’t walk home. D had to get a cab to take them back to friend’s school. In the frenzy of getting friend out of the cab (after friend barfed a bit in the cab and D had to negotiate with cab driver, giving him double what was on the meter which was all the cash she had), D walked back to Fordham and realized she left her phone in the cab.
Security helped her track it down and when the cab driver came back with the phone and wanted a ton of money for doing so, the head of security, a retired NYC Cop read the cab driver the riot act. Got her phone back without her having to pay any more.
Kept D as calm as possible. Kept telling her to go to bed and they would take care of it (she couldn’t- she had to stay in the lobby until the phone was back.) They took good care of her while she was going through a stressful situation at 4 am.

From my first visit to Fordham, I felt that the security force at LC would take care of my kid if she had a problem, and they did. And I’m grateful.
