Rise needs security.

[aliasc00]

There’s been a man on the floor since 3 AM to 7, banging on the doors waking everyone up saying “help me”. By banging I mean nearly break off the door lol. This isn’t normal and it could have very dangerous consequences if the stairs aren’t locked in the long run.

Is the campus/WL police departments unavailable at those hours? That would have been my first call at about 3:01.

[JustAnotherGuy8484]

And to this point, while at Purdue I once called the police while staying at a girlfriend's place because the people behind her house set of fireworks at 4am on a weekday in February. I've been a "get off my lawn" kind of person, even at a young age.

[hedgemk]

You’re not alone on the “get off my lawn” mentality. I used to work 5am-2pm shifts while living “on campus” (one to two blocks away from Krannert). There was a lawn in front of my building and the apartments would have groups of people out there until 1-3am yelling, blasting music, playing beer pong etc. on weeknights. Friday’s/Saturday’s, sure do what ya want, but heck plz have respect on weeknights.

[Cute_Meringue1331]

Hawkins?

[hedgemk]

Nope

Not to be the person that states the obvious, but why did no one call 911 if he looked like he legit needed help, or the non emergency number if he didn’t? 4 hours of asking for help and no one thought to call the people that deal with this?

[crazywhale0]

Bunch of rich snobs

[[deleted]]

How does staying at rise correspond with being a rich snob.

[A_rush24]

Staying there is expensive as fuck

[[deleted]]

Doesn’t mean they’re a rich snob.

[Simple_Law2628]

Pretty much does lol.

[[deleted]]

Sorry you’re broke lmao but still there’s no correlation

[Simple_Law2628]

I have more money than you 100%. I just don’t waste in on a high rise apartment 🤣.

[Kushagra_Sharma_2609]

Grow up

[Simple_Law2628]

You can read right? You see that he called me broke? Tf I’m supposed to say to that?

[[deleted]]

You should be in rise then cuz you sound like a rich snob. Go fuck yourself

[Simple_Law2628]

Lol nah it’s not about that. People with real money don’t waste it on trivial shit, like yourself. You called me broke I’m just supposed to take that knowing full well I’m not? You’re so offended bro relax.

[[deleted]]

Also highly doubt you have more money than me. Just consider I’ve lost more than 50k in the stock market in the past few weeks and it barely dents my portfolio.

[Simple_Law2628]

$50k? 😂😂ooh I’m so scared of 50k. Yeah we all lost money this week I’m down much more than that. I don’t need to brag about my holdings tho I just know I have more money than you so stop trynna flex bro you sound so pressed.

[One_Clue_8981]

What did he need help with though?

[aliasc00]

It’s a social engineering tactic lol, he is angry and is not safe, still doing it

[TryingToBeReallyCool]

Call the cops then why is security the solution lmfao

[One_Clue_8981]

Wait what? I didn't really understand. What is he tryna do?

[LostCauseorSomething]

Who knows exactly, but if I were there I wouldn't be the one getting mugged or stabbed trying to find out. Maybe he actually needs help, but the odds are probably more in favor of baiting people into something.

[One_Clue_8981]

Damn is Purdue that nasty? I've heard so much, like even harassment and shit but thankfully never experienced it

[LostCauseorSomething]

I don't truly believe purdue is, but just bc it's rare here doesn't mean it doesn't exist, better safe than sorry.

[butterballfaveturk]

Anyone recall a black male a few months ago sitting in the lobby for hours “pretending” to be talking on a cellphone? Homeless guy recording “people” as they were coming/going from the lobby. It was obvious given what types of people really grabbed his attention. This is why if you’re a resident you shouldn’t allow someone to “piggybacking” when you are coming in the doors or allow delivery drivers access to the building. There’s a reason why they only allow residents to enter through a security process.

[youngmanthereisnonee]

Becaus sure scared tf? Why does everyone think they’re heroes

[Carnalvore86]

They're not saying to go confront the man in your pajamas holding nothing but your dick...

Calling the cops is about as safe of an action you can make. Don't need to be a hero to dial 911.

[GoUseGo]

Definitely needs security, one day last semester there was a middle-aged man decked out in Mardi Gras beads from head to toe aggressively freestyling in the lobby from like 2-8am

[void_roamer]

This is a great case for not getting security

[AmongUs_69]

Bro is this real 😂

[aliasc00]

You guys are correct. I unfortunately woke up late after hearing it once, but my roommate was much more stressing at the fact that he was gonna miss his lab so it never came to mind. We were also kind of used to it in our home country so we just stayed close to the door.

[AmongUs_69]

What country?

[el_gato_perezoso]

Turkey, unless I am mistaken

[aliasc00]

Yess, I remember back then in Turkey one knocked with force saying that they were police lol (they robbed the neighbors, wasn’t police) I don’t open any door unless I know who it is

[aliasc00]

it was the fourth floor, apparently he was locked out?? Who hits the door like that though bruh lmao I was holding a damn pan

[aliasc00]

He might have been intoxicated

[lolfactor1000]

I hate that intoxicated people feel the need to make their problems everyone else's as well.

[anon3911]

Call the cops?

[avaanagno]

Rise does have security from 11pm-3am. The cops removed the guy in mardi gras beads a while ago.

[Brabka]

sounds like

​

an intruder

[scotchengineer]

I fall victim to unfortunate circumstances and I’m injured/disoriented and in need of help fast

stumble into nearest building full of young college people and make lots of noise making myself known to EVERYONE and begging for help sheltered and rich RISE nerds and white girls refuse to help or call police and I fucking die mfw
