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.

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

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

and an upgraded lighting system," said
Melvin Owens, captain of the auxiliary
service. "Essentially, we have the same
number of people working on weekday

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;

In 1993, the Auburn police depart:

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

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.

Officers and students also provide

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.

Police also implement ID card checks
to make sure only students with official
business are on campus, Wilson said.
A shuttle service is available from 7

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- ,

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.
