UNL
launches
anti-theft
project
By Rebecca Ross
Last year $24,000 worth of personal property was stolen
on campus. This year. Campus Security hopes to reduce that
figure through an identification program.
The Scriber Program, according to Merlin Howe, Campus
Security investigator, involves inscribing a student's or staff
member's personal property with their social security number.
Within the next two weeks, Campus Security will have
inscribing pencils available for students who want to protect
their tape decks, radios, stereos. TVs, bicycles, typewriters and
other items of value that can be inscribed.
Through the Residence Hall Association (RHA) dormitory
and co-op residents can check out the inscribes ASUN will
handle off-campus students and the Panhellenic Council will
handle fraternities and sororities, he said.
The student will be given a card, Howe said, to record the
items he has inscribed. This card will be filed with Campus
Security.
Howe said this program has been used by several California
communities and has caused the crime rate for house
burglaries to drop.
"This program will be especially helpful for the dormitory
student," Howe said. "Persons are often too trustful. They
leave their doors unlocked and don't really know the people
who are living in the dorm."

Gail Gade, Campus Security chief, said marking the social
security number on items helps improve the recovery rate of
stolen goods.
"The more numbers you have on an item, he said, the
greater the possibility of tracking it down."
Howe said if something that is marked is stolen, Campus
Security can give the serial number to the Lincoln police. They
can then use the National Crime Information Computer, in
Washington, D.C. to find out if the item has turned up
anywhere else in the state or nation
