An e-mail was sent out over the journalism listserv on Friday informing students, “Due to a reduction in security presence, the main entrance to Annenberg Hall on 13th Street is now the primary entrance. For your convenience, a card swipe is located at the back entrance, the Park Mall entrance via Liacouras Walk.

The e-mail went on to state all SCT students should have card access and to report to a security guard if they cannot swipe in.

To the non-SCT students at Temple, have you gotten similar e-mails about a decreased security presence in some buildings?

Has Temple’s budget gotten so bad, they are being forced to cut back on the security they provide to students to feel safe?

What do you think?
