Re: Stolen Laptops

Kim,

We have had an increase of thefts as well.  Not just laptops, but video  
cameras, recorders and any equipment easily resold.

Attached is a list of items we recommend to areas on campus to decrease  
the thefts.  The best success has been card reader access doors - not the  
cheapest!

Thanks,
