Safer Walking
Tonight's freshmen moment gets to go to me...my very own self.
Last night, at 11:00 in the evening, I got a safewalk home from the southwest corner of campus on up to good old DT. I'm not actually convinced that I needed to do it, but I have a friend who was concerned for my safety, and she doesn't ask a lot, so I called University Police and had them walk me home. I've walked with this particular security guard before. She always thanks me for calling, because she likes walking people home a lot more than she enjoys checking buildings. She tells me hilarious stories though. Tonight's story involved her checking the Benson building after hours once, and finding a couple engaged in activities that got them dismissed from the university in an elevator.
My only thought there was WHY? Who thinks of doing things like that? Anyway.
We get to the door of my building, and she says, "you think you can make it safe from here?"
I laughed the whole way into the dorm. Moral of the story is, calling for Safewalks isn't that bad, and University Police actually enjoy doing it.

Hehe! "Dismissed from the University in an elevator?" I didn't know they did things with such style here!
And thanks for getting a safewalk. I'm glad it wasn't so bad.

Who thinks of things like that?
People who are about to get married in, oh, say 3 months. That's who.

There's a rather famous story that got thrown about a lot on the weeknight crew. Don't know if you ever heard it, while I had the pleasure of hearing it from several points of view.
Apparently, as a certain BC who wished to remain anonymous was going about the building locking up for the night, he found a couple in one of the conference rooms on the third floor.
I'm guessing they also got dismissed from the university.
Seriously, a conference room? It wasn't even locked! They could have at least gone into the freight elevator or somewhere where they wouldn't get caught.

Hey, i think I'm friends with the one you walked with, because she told me about that story last time I saw her on campus.
