Make UTC area safe for everyone
As a senior at UTC, I have been talking to other students about the recent death of Chattanooga police officer Sgt. Tim Chapin.
As students, we should feel safe and comfortable in our learning environment. UTC could use this current topic as a way to emphasize the importance of our safety to the student body. We do not want to constantly be looking over our shoulders in fear, which is why the university could do more to ensure student safety on campus.
It would also be helpful for students to understand how to keep incidents like the recent shooting away from UTC. Safety on campus should be of top priority and should concern not only the students, but the faculty as well.
