In response to the horrfic shootings at Virginia Tech, LSC held a community meeting to discuss the incident and how LSC would handle such a situation. Residence Hall Director Jonathan Davis assured the campus community that the college would be closed immediately following a crisis like the one at VT. LSC has actually had school safety procedures in the event of a crisis for several years now, and is working on making an even better one, thanks to administrators. Bob Whittaker put it best when he said, "In the last year it's become evident that we need to be prepared for what was just 12 months ago unthinkable. We just hope for the best."

How does one get out of a bad date? That was the question asked to a few LSC students recently. The result was hilarious. One popular excuse was feigning illness. Injury could apparently lead to unwanted sympathy and fear of contagion could easily excuse one from any visits. Other suggestions involved being extremely rude to your date, such as talking over anything she has to say, or becoming very inebriated. Another suggestion was to fake a cell phone call with a reason for leaving. A personal favorite, though, comes from Samantha Guilmette, "Talk about marriage and having a lot of kids right away."
