Almost a slow news day.

I went through nearly the entire day thinking it'd be a slow news day. However, Mr. White came through.

I won't say if I fully broke out into laughter when I heard the familiar "ding ding!" with five minutes left in the second hour final, but you can probably guess my reaction if you think hard enough. His timing was impeccable-it's not like anyone could possibly be stressing with five minutes left in their final. Good thing he had plenty of important information to fill us in on, namely, that we did, in fact, have to leave after finals ended. "No sleepovers, students! I know you all love my Super Happy Wonder Land, but you have to go home sometime!"

In more important news, CAMERA MEETING TOMORROW. BE THERE.
I got an email yesterday from a certain high-ranking member of Pioneer's student hierarchy. According to the email, there were 106 reported thefts first semester this year, less than half than first semester last year. For those of you keeping score at home, there were 580 thefts reported last year. At this pace, there would be 212 thefts this year, which is an astonishing 63% drop. Looks to me like Mr. White's policies are working–why do we need cameras?
Additionally, only 13.2% of those 106 thefts took place in areas where cameras will be installed. 14 thefts over the course of a semester? Well worth $80-100,000!
