ing Tom Nevling during a
confrontation in the dorms on

of 1983. The incident began
when Nevling was said to have

then apparently went looking
for Nevling, and a fight ensued.
Originally Gibson was found
guilty by the Dean of Student
Affairs, Dr. Jerry South, who
recommended that he be expell
ed from the dorms. Gibson
claimed self defense and
requested an appeal.
Gibson, who was dressed very

sweater, said “I’m not aggressive

“The way I feel my action was
to solve the problem. I tried to
avoid him, but he came after
me, that’s why I struck him.”
South, who represented the
University, felt Gibson’s story
fell apart when he confronted
the student instead of just talk
ing it out or calling for the Resi
dent Assistant.
However, after Gibson parad
ed a number of credible
witnesses in front of the board,
warning
his self-defense plea seemed to
gain momentum.
Gibson was given a
disciplinary warning to be plac
ed in his record and was per
mitted to remain in the dorms.
In the end, the board found
Gibson guilty of disorderly con
duct. However, they concluded
that he was “innocent of
physical abuse for reasons of
self-defense.”
Assault
prompts
escort service
formation
By Thomas Dekle
An escort service is now of
fered to students and facutly in
the wake of an assault on a
faculty member last year.
Police Service officers Chris
Barrett and Bill Brownlowe are
on duty every Monday through
Thursday night form 8 to 11
).m. to escort students and
acuity to their cars in either
;he upper lot or the main lot
)ehina the Olmsted
Building. They can also assist
with any car problem.
“If you would like to have an
escort on those dark nights,
stop by the nurse’s office,” Bar
rett recommended. The nurse is
connected with the Police Ser
vices and Escort Officers by a
two-way radio. She will call an
officer for you. Many times the
officer on duty can be found in
the Lion’s Den when not on in
spection rounds of the building.
If you would like to walk with
other students to the dorms or
Meade heights at night, you can
also stop at the nurse’s office.
The nurse’s office is designated
as a meeting area for students
going back to the dorm or
Heights.
“We (the escort service) are
here for your protection,” says
Barrett. Why don’t you use
us?”
