North Carolina State University ' s Student Newspaper since 1920 Volume L l , Number 47 Wednesday, lanuary 27, 1988 Raleigh, North Carolina Ed iOioipt ' Vagrant trespassing increases on NCSt By Meg Sullivan News Editor A homeless man was arrested outside D.H. Hill Library on Mon day after soliciting money from students, a Public Safety official said Tuesday. The incident was just one of a series of recent encounters between officers and transients on campus. The man. identified as Charles Jordan, was charged with second degree trespassing, said Maj. Larry Liles. He had been charged weeks ago with a similar offense. University officials noted other Vagrant Problems Don ' t give vagrants money. Instead, give it to the mission. See lead editorial, page 10. instances of Raleigh ' s homeless tres passing on campus. Liles said that frequently transients seek shelter in campus greenhouses. North Hall and in the basement of the Hillsborough Build ing. Public Safety recently discovered mat the window grates leading to the basement were tampered with and when Public Safety officers investigated the matter, it was apparent that someone had been living there , . , there were empty wine bottles and papers scattered on the floor. Liles said. The university repaired the grat- ing and began to lock the greenhouses to prevent the homeless from seeking shelter there. Liles said. Greenhou.ses were especially dan- gerous because homeless people could get in after the buildings had been fumigated, which could impose a serious health threat. ,A city and university recommen- dation distrubuted to the N.C. State community last fall asked students to donate money to city shelters and soup kitchens rather than give pocket change to the homeless. University officials said that many times the money is used to purchase alcohol rather than food. Waymon Pritchard, executive director of the Raleigh Rescue Mission, confirmed that there is a problem on the NCSU campus. A lot (of transients! hang out and make money from students going to classes. he said Tuesday. It ' s easy for a student to give them a quarter or fifty cents and then move on.
