College Asks Students For Police Clearance
RALEIGH (AP) — A college
shaken last year by a slaying, the
shooting of a child and a dorm rob
bery is asking applicants for a letter
from their hometown police depart
ment certifying whether they have a
criminal record.
“There’s no reason to bring
Jack the Ripper on campus just
because he applied,” said St.
Augustine’s College spokesman
Tracey Todd. “We are looked at as
the guardians of students while
they’re here and their parents look
to us provide the best possible
safety.”
The request was made of all
3,400 people who applied to the his
torically black college as freshmen
or transfer students this year, said
Wanzo Hendrix, admissions direc
tor at the 1,900-student school.
About 95 percent complied.
A few reported criminal
backgrounds, said Wiley Davis,
vice president for student affairs.
“It doesn’t necessarily mean a
student will be turned down,”
Davis said. “But if he was on proba
tion for murder, we wouldn’t take
him.”
On campus during the past
year, a student was shot to death
and another was charged with mur
der; an 8-year-old was shot outside
a gym during a basketball game;
and four students were held up in
their dormitory room by a masked
man.
Many colleges ask applicants
whether they have been convicted
of a crime.
But Dorothy Siegel, execu
tive director of the national Campus
Violence Prevention Center, said
her organization knows of no other
four-year U.S. college requesting a
letter from the police.
“Some institutions are look
ing for ways to relieve themselves
of liability,” she said. “There’s
been a lot of heat over whether cam
puses are responsible for the behav
ior of students.”

L et’s face it, you wouldn’t exactly be chuckling if you had just
spent thousands of dollars more on another oar and
discovered that the Lexus LS has retained more of its original
value than any other car in its class.* Nor would you be terribly
amused to find it’s priced so incredibly low.
On the other hand, if you test drive a 1993 LS today, you could
find yourself laughing all the way to the office, the country and
eventually the bank.
