Despite the fact that security bulletins pertaining to the alleged rape have been posted throughout the campus, when questioned many students did not know about it.

According to psychology professor Gayle Pitman, this event signifies a definite need for improved security on campus.
“I don’t think that any campus can be 100 percent safe,” Pitman said. “There’s going to be crime any place. But the fact that a crime of that magnitude happened the other day at all says there’s probably more to be done when it comes to rape and sexual assaults.”
College police sergeant Brian Washington believes that limited resources have affected the level of security on campus.
“We can’t be everywhere at once,” Washington said. “Unfortunately you can’t prepare for every crazy incident or every criminal act that comes along.”
According to Washington, the investigation is far from over and there are still many unresolved questions regarding the alleged sexual assault.
