Has The Slate (TM) met on this one yet? Or did you... y'know, wanna try forming your own opinion on a campus issue? Or, just carry on with the lame cheap shots. Hey Nate:

Anyway, I'd love to see DPS with some fancy new gizmos. At a campus in my hometown, they also decided it would be wise to give their fake cops some Tasers as well. The result? Let's just say Tasers are a little less-lethal than one would have them seem. One kid got jacked up on some kind of shrooms (I don't know which, so please don't ask me if you can buy some) and went crazy, so the cops attempted Tasering him 17 times. It was disgusting. Lesson learned: fake cops cannot effectively Taser crazy people into submission. Fancy that. Hey Nate, as long as she’s still posting, I may have a chance… so back off.

I don't understand why people such as yourself just can't let go of college. Its OVER leave it be. Meghann,

I know they've been thinking about it for quite some time, which they claim is at least part of the reason why Tom Hicks is still interim director (as opposed to being promoted to just director). DPS really needs a new office, and that's somewhat tied in with the parking structure the U wants to build, the thinking being that the new office would be on the bottom floor of the parking garage. But questions about the future of DPS have tied things up (as has the fact that a parking garage is horrendously expensive and is somewhat dependent on the new basketball arena). This might of all changed though now that Frances Dyke is in charge. But at least when Dan Williams was around, that was the situation.
