Thefts rais By JEFF WILSON Staff writer The burglaries that occurred on campus during the Christmas holiday have left unanswered questions about campus security in the minds of many students. Burglary victim John K. Nations, interdisciplinary senior, said he has been living on campus at USC since his freshman year, and one thing university housing always does is make students leave campus during the holiday break. "When I first saw this happening, I asked around to find out why they do that, and why can't students stay if they want, since they paid for the room.' They say it s tor security reasons, so they won't have a large number of people messing around during the holidays," Nations said.

Nations said. Students are allowed to live on campus during the Thanksgiving, Christmas and spring breaks, provided they pay a fee, said Michelle Wright, secretary to James Smart in University Housing. But before a dorm can be left open, at least 10 students have to sign up to stay. Students living in campus apartments such as Cliff apartments are allowed to stay, but they too must pay a fee, Wright said. Ronnie Roberts, commander of university police, said the occupied dorms have staff who are responsible for making sure the building is secure and for reporting suspicious individuals to the police. \e 1 student perspective," It makes sense to me," h ;aid.

It would take at least a hundred officers. But the police officers on duty do check those buildings that are supposed to be closed down," he said. Some of the buildings that were burglarized were staffed and had people living in them, Roberts said. "We try to keep the facilities on campus secure, and when we find a breach in security, we do what we can to make things better," said Danny Baker, assistant vice president of law enforcement.
