There also needs to be a daylong Use Your Common Sense seminar for our students.

The local predators aren't stupid. They know to be on the periphery of our local campi for targets. It is like the lions who hang out on the edge of the wildebeest herds. They know there is lunch available there.

A few points in the syllabus:

The only person who should be asking you "What Time Is It" should be Morris Day.

If someone says "Got 50 Cent?", they are not asking you if you have downloaded Curtis Jackson's new tracks yet.

If you decide you can take the "Townies" who crashed the kegger on Chester Street because you were on the football team at AOF, you should think a bit more wisely.

It is September and all the suburban kids are not used to life in the big bad city yet. Welcome to Boston Ethan and Emma!
