Crime On Campus
UnitedWay Nets Over $1,600
Part Two Of Two Part Series BY DENISE DAUBENSPECK "Longwood is relatively safe, It's better on campus than in the community," said James Huskey, Chief of Campus Police. During 1988 and 1989 there were 212 cases of larceny. 2 forcible rapes. 2 aggrivated assaults. 1 motor vehicle theft. There were no reports of murders, robberies, or arson. "Statistics can be misleading. If crime statistics are low. it gives people a false sense of security. If statistics are high, people think crime is rampant." Huskey remarked. "It's good that students know about crime on campus, but I don't want students having a false sense of security or being mislead by statistics." added Huskey. After a crime is reported, copies of the police report are sent to William Dorrill. President. Phyllis Mable. Vice
''resident of Student Affairs Sue Saunders. Dean of Students, and any other admlnlstration whose area would be affected by the crime. "Petty larceny occurs more because of the abundance of electronic equipment, such as TV. stereos, computers, etc. Assaults are less likely to occur because more people are moving around." commented Huskey. Many things have been done to reduce crime on campus. Including better lighting, and the installment of emergency phones and new security system. Currently the lights in front of the Cunninghams, Wheeler, and Cox are being looked at for improvement. Another request will be for some to be cut back. The 1990 crime statistics will be available in March of 1991.
