       Recently, there was a break in at the CAU Suites on campus. A student’s dorm room was vandalized and several things were stolen. I went to check out the area where the break in had taken place. I went to see if the freshman at the entrance of the dorm were talking about what had happened. While I did not hear any students talking about the incident, I could feel that the atmosphere around the dorm was a little tense. There were more campus police outside than usual. According to the news and Instagram, there were some clothes missing, but the perpetrators had made a huge mess in the dorm room. A story idea I have is to follow up with the continuing investigation around the area and interview students on how they feel about this dramatic experience on campus.

While walking through the Student Center today, I spotted a bright flyer on the bulletin board: “SGA: Students Have a Voice! Share your concerns, ideas, and questions at our next Town Hall. Your input helps shape campus life and safety at CAU!” The flyer invites all students to attend the upcoming SGA Town Hall meeting on Monday November 17 2025, the scheduled time 5:00 pm where they can speak directly with student leaders about issues like campus safety, resources, and student life. There’s also an email and social media handle for submitting questions if you can’t attend in person. This message is a reminder that student government wants everyone to feel included and empowered to help guide decisions on campus. I’ll be following the SGA’s efforts and attending the meeting to see what concerns students bring up especially those related to safety and well-being.
