Universities need to re-establish themselves as a "moral authority" to keep the support of legislatures and private donors, a West Virginia University presidential candidate said Monday. "If there is a single issue affecting all university presidents, it is that one," said James C. Moeser, USC provost and vice president for academic affairs. "Over the entire nation, the place of higher education has slipped very enormously and very seriously," Moeser said.

"Crimes against people are our No. 1 priority, but thefts are our biggest problem," Tipton said. In 1994,1,447 crimes were committed on the UF campus ?1,293 thefts, 66 motor vehicle thefts, five forceable sex offenses including rape, four robberies, 27 aggravated assaults and 52 burglaries. Seventy sworn officers make up the UGA police department, Crime Prevention Officer Mark Greer said. On the UGA campus, there are call boxes, escort vans, bike patrol and foot patrol in conjunction with the regular dispatch radio patrol. "Essentially, we have a double shift all of the time," Greer said. The escort van service is run by the police department but worked by students. No guns are allowed on the UG^ campus. "This is a Board of Regents policj which applies to eveiy school in the state of Georgia," Greer said. Of the 1,400 crimes committed or campus last year, the most prevalent involved theft.

Moeser, 56, was the first of six candidates to meet with faculty, staff and students as part of a two-day visit. Campus visits will conclude April 27, the day before a 17-member presidential search committee is to give the University System of West Virginia board three to five names to consider to replace Neil Bucklew. Other candidates to replace Bucklew. who is resiEminp Julv 1 after nine years, are University of Idaho President Elizabeth Zinser, Charleston attorney David Hardesty Jr., WVU Associate says Harvard showed any remorse whatsoever." In an interview Saturday, Myers would not discuss the controversy about Harvard's retraction of its offer of admission. The reversal came after the university learned that Grant had bludgeoned her alcoholic mother to death with a lead crystal candlestick five years ago in Lexington, S.C. Grant pleaded no contest in the September 1990 killing, served six months in a South Carolina juvenile prison and was on probation until she was 18. She moved to Cambridge to live with her aunt and uncle and began attending the "We have call boxes, an escort service and an upgraded lighting system," said Melvin Owens, captain of the auxiliary service. "Essentially, we have the same number of people working on weekday and weekend nights. Basically, we have > our night owls covered." The escort service is run by the police department in conjunction with the Student Government Association. The strict gun policy states "no guns on campus anywhere," Owens said. "This includes residence halls, property or any | other place on campus." Thefts are the most common crime on campus. "Petty thefts of things that are easi; ly disposed of like books, j ewelry, bikes ' and things like that," Owens said. In 1993, the Auburn police depart: ment had four reported assault incidents, two robberies, 80 burglaries, four motor > vehicle thefts, 117 liquor law violations, 25 drug abuse violations and eight weapons violations.

Moeser said colleges and universities cannot rely solely on legislative appropriations and must work at "reallocating and redistributing funds already under our control." "Moving programs toward excellence will have to be done internally," Moeser said. He said equality issues also are among his maior concerns. He said manv cam puses find themselves involved in segapplicant w public high school in 1992. The university has refused to comment specifically on Grant's case, but said that Harvard generally withdraws offers if there is a sudden drop in a student's academic performance or a student lied on the application. The Harvard application also asks whether a student has ever been on probation. Grant's attorney, Margaret Burnham, said Grant, now 19, was not obligated to disclose something that happened when she was a juvenile. Myers said Grant's attorneys alleged that she had been emotionally or versist police with safety services by watching parking lots and making sure build ore details ings are locked. Officers and students also provide foot escorts to students at night. Terry said the university provides maps of well-lit sidewalks to students and encourages students to follow them. Emergency phones also are available to students, Terry said. When Arkansas won the NCAA basketball championship last year, Terry said there were students all over the campus and that some were arrested for alcohol violations. "This year was a lot quieter," Terry said. "We were let go one hour after the game." In 1993, there were three sex offenses, two robberies, six cases of aggravated assault, 104 burglaries and 135 thefts at Arkansas. Terry said Arkansas students aren't allowed to store firearms in their dorms and that university police don't store weapons for students. At S.C.

He said there were counter-charges that the girl's boyfriend, Jack Hook, had caused problems between the mother and daughter. Hook's fingerprints were found on a knife the two used to try to make it look as if the mother killed herself; her neck was sliced through to the spinal column. Myers said many of the convicts he has sent tq prison received their university degrees there. "I guess this girl's entitled to one," he said.

A shuttle service is available from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday for students who need rides around campus." Wilson said S.C. State doesn't allow students to store weapons, but if a students want to keep a sporting rifle on campus, they can leave it with the police department. "Any student caught in possession of a weapon will automatically be expelled," Wilson said. In 1993, there were 137 cases of lar- , ceny. In 1994, the number went up to 145 cases. Safety at Newberry is provided by city police during the day and two security guards at night, said Gerald Mount, assistant dean of students. Mount said student organizations and security guards provide escort services to students. Like at S.C. State, call boxes are not part of this private college's landscape, but students can access the city police or security guards via beepers in case of an emergency.
