...result of failing campus security at NIU. On the contrary, officers responded immediately to a call of shots fired on campus at 3 p.m. and by 3:07 p.m., the campus was on lockdown.

As long as this requirement is met, it matters little who does the actual advising. Furthermore, it’s unlikely that senior faculty members would ever want to dabble in the advising process; some...
