Proposal calls for 24-hour lockdown Luisa Constanza Senate/Club Correspondent The 24 hour lock-down ofresi- dential halls as proposed by Mike Kimel, Director of Security and Safety, has created some contro versy in the Guilford community. The proposal is for a 24 hour locking of main entrances of five residence halls—English, Mary Hobbs, Shore, Binford and Mil ner—by next fall. The plan also includes providing each building with outside phones, and giving key access to every outside door. This proposal has been bud geted at S4OOO for the phones and Guilford students meet with David Molpus, Southeastern correspondent for NPR National exposure Students to be featured in NPR report Staff Report Guilford students and their involvement in a wide range of community service projects will be fea tured on an upcoming segment of National Public Radio's "All Things Considered." The seven minute newsfeature will air either April 11,12 or 13 between 5:00 and 6:30 p.m. National Public Radio Southeastern correspon dent David Molpus spent a day on the Guilford campus talking with students who spent their spring break participating in work trips. Wade Tomlinson, a junior who led the work trip to Houston, Texas, says that Molpus asked the stu dents about Generation X. "We all agreed that Guil ford College isn't a part of that stereotype, that rather we are led to service- oriented projects." Tomlinson says that Molpus came to North Caro- SI2OO for the change in locks and keys that access to the buildings. "Given the community sur rounding Guilford College, having Kimel's Proposal •Five residence halls will have entrances locked at all times. •Outside phones will be installed on every building. •All doors will be key accessble. 24-hour secure dorms is a prudent and responsible thing to do for the college," Kimel says. Kimel explains that the proposal has been presented to Senate and lina to interview students at Duke, NC State and Chapel Hill, and then asked people there what small, very good college he should visit. They suggested Davidson and Guilford, Tomlinson says, and Molpus decided to come see Guilford. Initially, he was disturbed by the "hippie-like at mosphere," Tomlinson says, but his views changed by the end of his visit. The students who were interviewed emphasized Guilford's commitment to service. Reportedly, the NPR reporter enjoyed the community he experienced here. "It's good for Guilford to get this national expo sure," Tomlinson says, "and for students to get rec ognition for the good job their doing." Molpus also dined in Mary Hobbs and spent the evening with students who volunteer as tutors at Pathways Homeless Shelter in downtown Greens boro. April 7, 1995 other committees of the student body. Emily Drennen, chair of Secu rity and Safety Committee ex plains that Kimel's proposal is en dorsed by this organization. "The reason why we approved this pro posal was to get the discussion out of the committee so students could start making some decisions about it," says Drennen. "We believe that students input is really impor tant in order to decide whether the 24 hour lockdown should be done or not," she adds. Jeff Barham, member of the Please see LOCKDOWN page 5 Hobbs protests A few weeks ago, Mary Hobbs was one of the resi dence halls that had a intruder sneaking in to the showers. For this reason, after a residents' meeting and miuual agree ment, residents decided to ex tend lock bours in the build ing.
