Canevari and Wilkerson said students have the alarming habit of not locking their doors at night, making them more susceptible to crime. In all of Calloway's and McAllister's attacks, the victims had either left their doors unlocked or their windows open. In no instance did either break into an apartment or house, they simply had to walk through the front door. Another concern Canevari expressed is lack of police reports by off-Grounds crime victims. Without a report, he pointed out, University and local police will not be aware of high-crime areas or of patterns that could point to repeat offenders.
Students have to be willing to call police as soon as something happens.
