[00:01.29] Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property.
[00:06.26] Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket calculators and books have all been reported stolen.
[00:14.10] Are there enough campus police to do the job?
[00:18.06] There are twenty officers in the campus security division.
[00:22.07] Their job is to handle crime, accidents, lost and-found items and traffic problems on campus.
[00:30.40] More than half of their time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets.
[00:37.04] Responding promptly to accidents and other emergencies is important, but it is their smallest job.
[00:45.09] Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time.
[00:49.01] Very rarely do any violent crimes actually occur.
[00:53.22] In the last five years.
[00:55.06] There have been no murders, seven robberies and about 60 other violent attacks, most of these involving fights at parties.
[01:05.06] On the other hand, there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property, which usually involves breaking windows or lights or writing on walls.
[01:18.51] The thefts are not the carefully planned burglariesthat you see in movies.
[01:24.01] Things get stolen when it's easy to steal them, because they are left lying around unwatched.
[01:31.12] Do we really need more police?
[01:33.41] Hiring more campus police will cost money, possibly making our tuition go up again.
[01:40.28] A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.
