Caution tape and evidence tags made a mock scenario come to life for Ohio State journalism students. OSUPD hosted The Lantern class reporters for a mock crime scene to simulate breaking news. Students were tasked with gathering information, confirming facts and writing on deadline.
The Ohio State University Police Division (OSUPD) is reminding students, faculty and staff to take precautions and lock doors and windows – especially at night.
Campus Service Officers (CSO) are an extra set of eyes and ears trained to help keep the campus community safe. CSOs report suspicious activity so police can respond as needed. The non-sworn positions are performed by student staff who work in pairs to patrol on and off campus in marked vehicles. In the past, these types of roles have led students to pursue a career in law enforcement.
