This is what happened to Jeremy.  He was in the Forum, which is the room I monitor on Monday nights.

I just had two officers come by the Forum. I was on the phone with Seth when I heard the door handle rattle. I damn near jumped out of my skin. I heard them talking on the radio and checking other doors. I yelled "hello" but no one answered. When I got to the door and opened it, no one was in the hallway, but I could still hear the radio chatter. I yelled "hello" again, and from around the corner by the Honors office two men yelled "blue check". I yelled back "Hello? I don't know what that means!" Two police officers, guns drawn, came around the corner. They told me to keep my hands in the air, patted me down, and asked me what I was doing in the Forum. I told them I had a code to the door, and I was just there studying. I locked everything and turned the lights off when I heard what was going on. They were in the middle of checking the Forum when they got another call on the radio about somebody walking around Wingo. They told me to stay put with the door locked and then they ran off.

When he recounted this to me earlier today, he was shaken.  Last night he had a gun put in his face by an officer who was, himself, scared out of his mind.

I kid you not.  We just had a shooting.
