But what about the on-campus presence of a gun-wielding man fleeing the Rice University Police Department? We feel that when a man accused of physically assault- ing his undergraduate girlfriend evades police custody by vaulting from the roof of Brown College (see story, page 7), students should be notified of his whereabouts, and we don't TOWNlT mean in an e-mail an hour later.

The point of setting up the Im university-wide alert system in the first place was to make it easy for those at the highest level of the administration to contact students immediately in the event of an emergency. That said, we fully believe that sending a timely text message to every registered phone on campus would have been much easier and more considerate than trying to disseminate infor- mation through multiple parties and hoping it would arrive intact and simultaneously to each and every student.
