I have been up in that recently renovated area south of Roosevelt and it is all new buildings, well lit at night, and a beautiful area. Not many years ago you would not want your car breaking down in that area, and now it is one of the safest areas in Chicago. The people at UIC did a tremendous job planning, developing, and reclaiming that area.

Better watch it, you're not supposed to tell it like it is now days. You know what you'll be labeled.Originally posted by AZ BU Fan View PostMost serious 'crime' at BU is the increased ticket and seat fee plan for the MBB program...
I am just guessing, but would think crime on, or close by, BU's campus would be less than similar inner city colleges/universities or even larger universities that are the size of cities (Ohio St, ASU, etc).
Crime - A sign of our times - innocence lost due to breakdown in a family structure and the emergence of state supported/reliant citizens and illegals...What part of illegal don't you understand?Comment

Ah shucks Chico, I've been widely known as a 'jack-ass' for some time.. Last couple years the adjective 'old' has been added...Originally posted by Chico View Post
When the government/society supports and encourages single parents having an unlimited number of kids through immigration/ naturalization laws (born here = citizenship), tax law, welfare law, child support, free food at schools, and endless charity, what do you expect - lots of kids with no help and a growing population for criminals to recruit..

Interesting report from campus
"The Markin Recreation Center has implemented new security measures this year with its ID scanners.
Each time students swipe Bradley IDs to gain access to Markin facilities, their pictures appear on the welcome desk computer screens.
Bradley University Police Department Chief Brian Joschko said if the entering guest does not match the picture on the screen, desk operators are instructed to call the police.
???We do not want students confronting people who have committed a crime,??? Joschko said.
There have been nine incidents in October where a non-student tried to use a university ID card to obtain entrance into the center.
One of the people was banned from all Bradley properties and three were banned from Markin this month. But Joschko said people are banned from university property only if they have committed a crime and have no reason for being on campus."Comment

..another armed robbery, same McDonald's right next to campus..
This seems to happen a couple times every year .. and a few years back there was a shooting in the parking lot and in a couple incidents I can recall, someone was shot & killed.
