Scary late-night occurance on a safe campus...

[flybystardancer]

Okay, so it's a little bit after 11:30 on a Thursday night. I'm watching TV and waiting for my computer to be able to boot back up after bluescreening. All of a sudden, I hear rustling and my window (which was opened slightly) opening further. Startled, but thinking that it's some animal out there, I jump up and rush to the window with a cry of, "What the-?" At the window I saw a flash of color and heard someone drop to the ground and run.


My room is in the center column of room/windows, and it's the window blocked by the top of the trees. You can see that even though it's the "1st" floor, it's not at ground level. The pic is shot from a lower ground level than the building, skewing the view of how high off the ground everything is, and you can still see the "garden" (basement) floor windows.

That means whoever was at my window had to climb up to my window, or was climbing down from above (doubtful, because I would have seen them pass the window).

I've reported the incident to my RA (who lives right next door to me), and my windows are tightly shut. Still shook up over this, though. This is very unusual, because UPS has a very safe campus. *shudder*

*hugs a lot* Be safe!

I've never considered myself not safe while on campus... Yeah, Tacoma can have some bad stuff going on, but campus has always been safe...

[ravenclaw-devi.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I do hope it'll continue to be safe. *huggles*

*nestles close* So do I. Yet another reason to move back to Regester next year... There's no trees up next to the walls, so while there's no privacy while the screen's up, there's also almost no way for someone to climb up.

*hugs as well* Geez, that's scary. ;_;

*snuggles* Yeah. And I closed the blinds as I was getting changed to sleep even though normally the trees offer all the privacy I could want, because even those didn't feel like enough after what happened.

*brr* Perverted little creeps!

I have heard of some campuses that did have some dangerous peeping toms lurking about the girls dorms in the past (forgot which colleges though). Hopefully your report is taken seriously, cause that sort of activity ain't cool at all!

Well, the worst that's ever happened on this campus that I know of is prank calls in the all-girls dorm. UPS really has a safe and secure campus. So this isn't something that typically happens. I was just lucky in that I was fully clothed at the time. *curls up on*
