Q & A

Security
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR TOPIC?

UK's police force is completely separate from Lexington's patrol team. For instance, when the police is called while on campus or using any on campus land line, it is forwarded straight to the on campus officers instead of Lexington's. On campus there are multiple paths that have been lined out for students and faculty to walk on that are considered safety paths. These paths are monitored by the police, and there are cameras and phones along these paths that you can use when you are feeling awkward on these walks. Through some surface level research i was able to find out that there are multiple anonymous hotlines people call to tip off the police of suspicious behavior on campus.

WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MY TOPIC?

The police force on campus has so many jobs that aren't seen and i really want to know what all they do. There are so many activities on campus that have to be patrolled there cant be enough officers on campus to be everywhere all the time so how do they do it? Do they have patrols? or is there a room somewhere on campus an officer is sitting viewing all the cameras, and waiting for someone to slip up, so they can head out.

WHERE CAN I FIND OUT MORE INFORMATION?

To find out more about the security on campus i can go to the green dot organization and talk to them about what all they are involved in and how big of a role they have. i can also go around campus asking people how often they see the police force and how big of a force are they. there is also a site i can go to view all the different activities that are required to be patrolled.

Hooded

Even though you can judge someone off the way they dress, you shouldn't, point blank! going along with what this article was saying, a lot more then what you wear goes into stereotyping someone. in my opinion the author didn't want to come straight out and say that race and where your live play a role but it does. reading the passage carefully you can tell the subliminal reasoning to why Martin was shot in Florida. The idea of not knowing exactly what someone looks like can be quiet scary. the hood has gotten its terrifying aspects from the criminal history of it. When your not wanting someone to see your face you simply mask yourself with the hood, instantly putting fear into the watching persons eyes.
 For instance this picture is of rapper 50 cent, in this picture he seems violent and would make someone seem uneasy. now the picture below is the exact same rapper but gives off a totally different vibe. so the clothes do make the man!
I thought the article, "Brittney Griner and the Queering of Professional Sports," was a great article. it shows how the media only cares about things they never saw coming. For example, Brittney was blatant about her sexuality when she showed up on the runway in matching dress pants and a vest, to pick up her girlfriend.
  Another example would be the WNBA Draft. She came to the draft wearing a tuxedo and orange fingernails showing she is a woman but she isn't
straight. the media didn't make any commotion because they know she is gay.
