New card
mixed re\
By PATRICK VILLEGAS
Assistant News Editor
After two weeks of adjusting to
the new $200,000 card acess system
implemented into the Towers
and Thornwell area, student residents
have mixed reviews over the
security overhaul.
Several Towers area Desk Assistants
were polled this week by
The Gamecock to evaluate the new
security system in accordance to
the reactions they have heard from
ctii/lont mci^pntc
JIUUV1U 1VJIUVIUJ.
"More people like it then not,"
said Asif Akhter, a DA at Douglas.
'There are a few inconveniences,
but you have to remember (the
system) is working for us."
Akhter added that he personally
likes the system because his room
is much safer, unlike last year,
when his microwave was stolen
