College, town prepare for Green Key
With Green Key Weekend upon us, the College and the town of Hanover have been preparing for an expected increase in activities and large inflow of people. According to Rebel Roberts, Safety and Security crime prevention officer, there is often a significant increase in the numbers of people on campus. "It depends on what's happening on campus and on other variables such as the weather and what's going on at other campuses," Roberts said. During Green Key there will be an increase in the number of Safety and Security personnel. "Student Activity organizations ask for personnel for their special events so we will have additional personnel available for Green Key," Roberts said. Safety and Security also takes other precautions for Green Key, including posting bulletins in residential clusters explaining the dangers that often accompany a large weekend. "We usually have an increase in incidents," Roberts said. Two years ago, Safety and Security reported eleven cases of inebriety, five of alcohol possession by a minor and three cases of disorderly conduct. Last year, ........dont have these numbers yet b/c safety and security hasnt gotten back to me. The Hanover Police Department also takes certain precautions for Green Key.
