Escorts: better safe than sorry
BY KEU KASABIAN
Staff Writtr .
Students walking the CSUF campus at night needn't
walk alone; the campus police escort service is once
again in full swing, said Lieutenant Sieve King.
Tbe service was implemented to ensure the safety of
CSUF students walking alone on campus at night.
Escorts walk to and from a designated area with a student
who requests the service.
. The escorts are also required to check bike racks for
any signs of burglary, and patrol areas where people have
reported suspicious activity.
By patrolling these problem areas, campus police
hopes to deter any aiminal activity.
The service has five escorts, up from the two it had
when it started in 1985. The five escorts each work 20
hours per week, from dusk until midnight
King said that when the escort service was first formed
by former AS President Jeff Hansen in 1985, a large
number of students, mostly female, utilized the service.
Investigator Mike O'Reilly said that 1986-87 AS Pub¬
lic Relations Director Scott Vick was partially
responsible for the success of the program.
According lo O'Reilly. Vick had business cards made
up wilh ihe escort service's phone number printed on
them. O'Reilly said Vick issued mem to fraternities, so-
roities and professors in an effort to inform the campus
of ihe service.
The campus police also advertised for ihe service in a
tew issues of the Daily Collegian
Since the service started. King said there have been no
assaults reported on campus.
O'Reilly is in charge of training and overseeing the es¬
corts. There are currently three male and two female es¬
corts patrol! ing the campus every Monday through Friday

"Welcome back Bulldogs," it says on a
hand-written sign silling on a tripod just
inside Cassie's Yogurt at ihe intersection
of Cedar and Shaw avenues. "We hope
you enjoyed your summer."
The sign should also say "we will now
enjoy your spending," and sit in the door
of all local establishments. Most of the
businesses along Shaw Avenue in tbe
area around campus are enjoying a large
increase in their sales as the semester
starts.
The Jack in ihe Box at Shaw Avenue
and Chfttrwl Street is now "twice as
busy," said cashier Tammy Mitchell, 16.
"If s unreal." She added that the fast-food
restauranl serves lunch to "a lot of foreign
exchange students." \
"It's a mad house," at Kinko's Copies,
Shaw Avenue and Maple Street Manager
Bill Brown, 25, said his business has in¬
creased 'about 300 percent," since school
started. "I've had to hire 3-4 more people
than normal, and I'm barely holding on."
Tbe copy center's business does not al¬
ways depend on students, he said, but
does this time of the year. .
At the First Street and Shaw Avenue
Denny's, manager Hideo Matsuhashi said
that college sessions did not effect the day-
lime business, but brought a dramatic in¬
crease in the grave-shift traffic. "80 per¬
cent of live customers we receive, here then
are students." He noted that the place had
once brought in a rock band and tried
some special promotions to entice a
younger crowd into its lounge on the
weekends, but that "didn't wort-
Bob Ban, owner of Tequila Pete's, said
that his establishment "absolutely" caters
to students. Students and faculty "are a
major part of our business," he said, and
Tequila Pete's business increases 30 per¬
cent during the semester. He noted that
uni versity faculty were coming in for
dining and happy hour, while students
danced during the late-night scene. He said
there was a substantial increase in both
crowds.
At ihe Round Table across from cam¬
pus "we had a dramatic increase in busi¬
ness, probably about 25-30 percent." said
CSUF student Scon Hatfield. 26.
That's an even greater increase than nor-
