I forgot to add this to my reply and it may sound stupid but you'll realize how many college kids in the dorms actually forget to do this....close and lock the door when taking a nap or going to sleep!!!a guy on the 11th floor of my dorm woke up to find his ps2 and n64 stolen just because he was watching tv and the door was open. later he fell asleep...and this happened in the middle of the afternoon!

Wow, I have definitely lived a sheltered life. My freshman year, and even now at the house, I left my door open and unlocked all the time, except for when both myself and my roommate were leaving for more than 12 hours. Theft is not a problem on our campus, and EVERYONE at least has 2 laptops in their room, along with video games, dvd players, vcr's, tv's refridgerators, microwaves, stereos, desktop computers, etc. depending on the people. I think something like 5 laptops have been stolen and 3 cars broken into in my three years at Rose, of course it's a private school, not in town, and most everything is set back off the main road it's on a good ways.
