1. I don't know what is more remarkable -- the winning slogan itself or the fact
that there were others deemed
worse (despite their keen support).

2. I hope it works anyway. I (and my representative) would like my Campus to
be a Safe Place.


3. No, the winner was not me.

4. And no, I did not take part.

That slogan sucked harder than two dozen drunk bagpipers.

But at least your campus is safer. Dull, but safer.
