A Gated Bubble, Keeping Everything in
Many students feel comfortable and safe at Wake. Students can still be found walking around campus comfortably at 2 AM and leave their stuff lying around without it usually being disturbed. Wake does a pretty good job of letting us know what is going on in terms of illnesses, deaths, threats to security, or crimes through email. There is also an emergency text system, but there hasn't been a recent need to use it. The campus is also gated, preventing unregistered or uninvited cars from entering from 10 PM and 5 AM. Unfortunately when there are issues, the University seems quick to cover them up and some students feel that they are not always handled appropriately. Because everyone is close, outbreaks of illness can occur quickly. Regardless, I feel incredibly safe at Wake.
