Brown University Shooting Exposes Security Gap: Campus Building Unmonitored as President's Home Has Cameras

A Brown University building where two students were killed last week had no surveillance cameras. This security detail has drawn attention because the university president’s official residence is equipped with security monitoring. The shooting occurred in an "older" campus building. University policy did not require cameras in that structure. Meanwhile, the president’s home, a historic property owned by the university, has a camera system. The contrast highlights differing security protocols across campus properties. University officials have not yet commented on whether this policy will be reviewed following the tragedy. Police are investigating the double homicide. The lack of camera footage from the building itself may complicate their efforts.
