SAFETY continued from page 1
when there is a critical situation, such
as a students using illegal drugs in their
rooms.
Also, residence hall staff members
are trained to know when a situation is
out of control, such as when residents
are not cooperating with the hall staff.
At that point the University Police are
called to handle the situation. The Division
of Law Enforcement and Safety
was unable to provide statistics on the
number of times they report to residence
halls.
But for the entire campus, including
residence halls and all other areas on
campus, University Police reported three
rapes, six robberies and 47 total assaults
for 1994.
In addition to programs designed to
encourage safety on campus, the Department
of Housing conducts an annual
study to see how all students in
USC residence halls perceive their living
environment. This report includes
a section asking students how they feel
about safety in the dorm. For 1993,94
percent of students surveyed said they

felt safe in their room. Up two percent
from 1991,25.3 percent were aware of
students in their living area who used
illegal drugs. The number of students
who said they were aware of underage
students that drank on their floor was
52.1 percent, down six percent from 1991.
Another major concern of safety in
residence halls is prank callers. Carl
Stokes, director of law enforcement and
safety, explained how the University Police
handle prank callers.
Once a person notifies the police about
a suspicious call, the police determine
if the call is a simple prank or actual harassment.
Then they determine if the
call was made from campus. Ifitis an
on-campus call it can be easily traced in
the university phone system. If the call
is not from campus the police work closely
with Southern Bell to trace the call.
According to Newman, "The staff can
only do so much. It is the responsibility
of every student on the residence hall to
be aware and look out for each other."
constituency reports as in the past, senators
are now assigned to various committees
according to recent action taken
by SG Senate.
Finally, SG is planning to do a community
service project with Habitat for
Humanity on Dec. 2.

student lives or dies."
Vaughan, who has worked as a First
Responder for three and a half years,
said he never knows what to expect when
a call comes in.
"It's like an adrenaline rush. You
don't know what (the dispatcher) is going
to say or even if he knows the nature
of the call," Vaughan said. "You're
never completely sure about the condition
of the patient until you get there."
Most calls involve injuries at the P.E.
center or students who wait too long to
see a doctor. To reach the First Responders,
Corbin said students should
call the police department's 7-9111 number
so they can more easily be located.
Dialing 9-911 will reach EMS, but the
location the dispatcher sees will be
USCPD's address.
Corbin said First Responders can
reach students faster.

"I feel that this sort of programming
gives students a different perspective
on politics and democracy," said Jamal
Franklin, the Ideas and Issues Commissioner
for Carolina Productions. "If s
not what would be considered a mainstream
sort of lecture. I would say it's
more of a different type of intellectual
opinion that's being expressed by Benjamin
Barber. It's more of an abstract
view on citizenship and democracy."
Franklin also encourages students
to attend the lecture.
"I expect a fair number [of people],"

"If one of the EMS downtown units
is tied up, say on a Saturday morning,
it may be eight or 10 minutes before they
can get a unit from one of their substations
to campus," Corbin said.
When a student needs or requests
an ambulance, Vaughan said first responders
can help make the experience
easier.
Vaughan said, "It puts the students
in more of a receptive frame of mind before
the guys with the stretchers get
there."
Corbin said, "We can answer any
questions a student might have about
insurance. We have the luxury of being
able to take a few minutes and try to
comfort and establish some sort of rapport
with students."
The First Responders service is always
available when students are on
campus.
Franklin said. "I understand that the
issues being discussed aren't eye-catching,
but they are important."
Public forums on related topics will
be held through Sunday. Another weekend
activity is the showing of "Man Bites
Dog" at the Nickelodeon Theatre. This
winner of the International Critics Award
at the 1993 Cannes Film Festival is a
comedy about a philosophical serial
killer who is recorded continuously by
a documentary film crew. Tickets are
$3.50 for members of the Columbia Film
Society, $4.50 for students and $5.50
for the general public.
For more details about the forum,
contact the USC Philosophy Department
at 777-4166 or e-mail ANordmann@sc.edu.
"I think students will learn more
from this perspective because it's not
one they hear every day," Franklin said.
