File one, please, Cole. Otherwise the University will never start to recognize that these kinds of bias/hate crimes happen in and around campus and need to be addressed. A University PD alert ought to have gone out to warn others.

The June 2013 incidents mentioned above were reported to campus officials and a alert was requested to be sent out by student leaders, but they refused because those incidents happened just outside University boundaries.
Vern Baisden wouldn’t even pick up the phone and discuss it in that case.
But, if this attack did happen on campus, then it is a Clery Act reportable offense, and OSU PD ought to be involved and must report it.

I appreciate that Cole feels better now and that he’s done some good here, which he most certainly has and I commend him, but we need to protect our people on campus better, and shining a light on incidents like this needs to take place at the University administrative level, not just on social media.
