How common is theft in college?

Desktops are not commonly stolen. However, theft in general is VERY common. You are right, sometimes roommates do leave the door unlocked and things get stolen, although a desktop computer would be hard to steal. Don’t take mp3 players and such to school (esp. to places like the dorms or the rec). They WILL get stolen. I can’t tell how many times I read about this stuff in the police blotter.



The only time I’ve ever heard of a desktop being stolen is when someone took my friend’s roommate’s computer as collateral for a drug debt.

LMAO.
