we ask that whoever is in charge or can change the rules reconsider the new policies concerning door access and the overnight guest registration system. these are important issuses to us as students because we feel as though both our rights and privacy are being marginanlized as the university strives to make this campus as safe as possible. it should also be noted that as a consequence of the new policy, many students feel as though their safety is being compromised rather than enhanced. As students, we feel as though we should have a say in the means and levels of saftey we achieve in the residence halls. Most importantly we strongly belive that these new polices have gone to far.
