Mather House residents were shaken up last October after a convicted rapist was found lurking the lowrise halls, trying to enter students’ rooms by claiming he was a fire door inspector. Since the incident, an increase in false alarms over suspicious persons in the dorms has prompted the Undergraduate Council (UC) and the College safety committee to take steps toward making it easier for students to identify workers in the Houses. The UC unanimously passed a Worker Identification Act at its March 5 meeting, calling on the College to provide “readily identifiable clothing or badges...
...political stakes. What strikes me reading the bill is that this is a case where the Purists have carried the day.

...Richard, a werewolf, slept with wereleopards Micah and Nathaniel and then bedded Jean Claude, the master vampire of St. Louis, Mo.

Popkin, a sophomore in Lowell House, wasn’t as successful in her attempts to room with five other women and one man. Administrators informed...
...March 1999, detectives finally got a DNA match after Omar Ballard, a convicted rapist and onetime acquaintance of Moore-Bosko's, confessed in a graphic letter to a friend that he had killed her. In his first audiotaped confession, given after just 20 minutes of questioning, Ballard described the rape with previously undisclosed details from the crime scene and said he had acted alone. Ballard changed his story at the behest of the detectives, the petition says, claiming he had perpetrated the crime along with four other men. In the petition, Ballard stands by his original claim that...
