Cam­pus Safety Up­date

MISHAWAKA—While Bethel’s cam­pus may some­times seem quiet, there is al­ways some­thing go­ing on in the realm of Cam­pus Safety. Within the past month, there have been a num­ber of stu­dents with a wide va­ri­ety of med­ical in­juries to be dealt with, and mul­ti­ple fire alarms trig­gered among the dorm build­ings. Other is­sues on cam­pus in­clude:

• Re­ports of sus­pi­cious in­di­vid­u­als roam­ing the cam­pus, even one re­port of stalk­ing which took place out­side of the Wiekamp Ath­letic Cen­ter.  

• Two ve­hi­cle ac­ci­dents in the month of Feb­ru­ary: one tak­ing place in the Ever­est-Rohrer park­ing lot and the other near the Shiloh Chapel.
  
• A re­port was filed for prop­erty dam­age in the Din­ing Com­mons on Feb. 7.  

One of the more se­ri­ous events that took place was a rob­bery near the Huff­man Ad­min­is­tra­tion Build­ing be­tween the park­ing lot and the road­way. The in­ci­dent oc­curred on Feb. 20, but no fur­ther de­tails have been made avail­able.

Though it is easy to let your guard down within the safety of the ‘Bethel Bub­ble,’ it is ad­vised to be cau­tious, be­cause un­for­tu­nate events can still oc­cur. Most of these re­ports go un­no­ticed by the gen­eral pop­u­la­tion of Bethel’s cam­pus, but it is good to be aware of them.
