When we dropped my daughter off, I grabbed her and talked to a security officer. He said most of the crime is theft. He told her to always lock her door and never leave her laptop out visible to someone walking down the hall. Apparently local bad guys in the 19-22 age range (approx) will follow a student into the entrance of the dorm, and the real student will be nice and hold the door open for the baddie.

He gave her the usual don’t do anything stupid talk and told her to buddy up at night - street smart anywhere you are. However, my impression definitely was that theft is the biggest of the issues. I dimly remember something about bikes being stolen but since she doesn’t have a bike I didn’t listen too well.
