Turning someone in
- Thread starter RAIDER

I wasn't currently a student (in between being broke and having tuition money) but I had a HAC student working for me who took a power tool without my knowledge or permission. When I noticed I asked him about it and he said a friend of his needed it.
Well, I told him to return it immediately. He did not. After weeks I wrote Dr. Evans a letter about it. Unfortunately (for my friend), between the time I mailed the letter and the time he got called in, he returned the tool. I thought he returned it because of the letter, but when I saw him a week later I knew that THEN he was called in! He got a royal chewing.
Oh, he wasn't working for me by the time he was rebuked by Evans and he and I are currently "friends" on Facebook. He's a good guy just made a dumb mistake.

I had a roommate who had a picture of himself receiving oral sex from his girlfriend hidden in the dorm room. I happened to mention to the dorm sup that he should look in a certain place next room check. Never saw my roommate again.

I turned myself in - twice.
On both occasions, an incredibly nice staff man saw me breaking a rule with bigger consequences. Both of these men approached me later and had a conversation. They were respectful and kind. They felt bad about it, but told me it would be a violation of their employment to not turn me in, but they really didn't want to because that is not why they are on staff. They suggested that I turn myself in because it would be seen better by the disciplinary committee and it would not hurt my reputation so bad.
On both occasions, I told Mr. Highfill who was shocked that I would turn myself in. I told him about the kind staff member and figured that the crime was worth the punishment anyway. I didn't want to cause those guys any more stress than they already had in their life. Sure enough, RH just shook his head, recorded the demerits and told me to have a good day. No meetings. No other repercussions.

I did evening room checks my last year of schooling because the Dorm Sup worked 3rd shift. I was not staff. I only had one rule....."don't get me in trouble." I would overlook anything (staying up too late, wrong people in the room ect.), until their behavior would come down on me. My motto...."Just don't get me in trouble"
