My pure catholic highschool didn't have much security either .. considering our vice president was rumored to be a drug dealer .. though occasionally we had the police come in with drug sniffing dogs to sniff out the lockers .. that's about it .. we did have the odd camera here and there though ...

College had even less security .. cameras .. that's about it though.

ya Dame now has cameras EVERYWHERE, onll instead of using them for the reasons you'd think, they're just using them to watch people with their shirts untucked so that way they can bring them down to the office and show them that they had their shirts untucked, giving the kid no chance to explain his side...

as for my school... we have nothing... absolutely nothing, doors are always unlocked, kids can eat wherever they want, we may have a principal wandering the halls but only for the reason that he's going from one place to another, yet I think I feel safer than I would if I had security guards at my school... it would seem like a prison

My high school was pathetic. We had no cameras or security guards, just teachers and the principal walking the halls to make sure no one went to their lockers. We had 5 minues to go to our lockers between classes, and if you didn't get everything you wanted in those five minutes, you get marked late to class and you don't get your book, so your grade gets lowered. We also weren't allowed to bring bags into our school in fear of some one shooting the school up. Stupid, I know.

It's great how kids would kick the shit out of each other and nothing would happen with them except a stupid suspension. But when a kid rolls a nickel down the hall or goes in the hallway and says hello to some one, they'll get all over their ass and try to ban them from graduation. Great fucking school I went to.

Maybe this is part of the reason I hate anything that deals with catholicism now.

back when i was in HS.. we had nothing.. at all :lol:
i think we had some dude wander the halls
we called him narc.. he didnt like it.. so everyone did it.. he gave up eventually and stopped caring :lol:

our school was horrible.. there was a group of ppl who ate in the library hall up from where my friends and i ate.. they'd bring apples solely for the purpose of rolling them down the hall and down the stairwells at the end of the hall
i think a few ppl got nailed by flying apples .. one day no one had apples.. so they rolled a bottle.. i was sittin on the floor with my legs stretched out so it tipped off my foot and down the stairwell.. i happened to have a class near the end of the hall they were at so they all congratulated me..
its quite sad really :lol:
all of this in the library hall too :lol:

my school is amazing. its a big college type campus with courtyards and gardens, pathways and well lighted halls. tall ceilings. the whole school is made of red bricks and its in the shape of a doughnut. we are basicaly free to rome between periods (15 minutes) and lunch. i skip the first thirty minutes of band (study hall) and walk around with friends and junk. there arent any cameras in my school... the doors are always open. we dont even use hall passes. we once had a tornado drill. our school is concidered "fire proof." heheh...

What's a hall pass?

All this stuff about security guards and cameras is just wierd for me. We had absolutely nothing, but we never needed it. You'd get the occasional fight, and I think we had 2 bomb threats the whole 7 years I was there - but that was just a chance to spend the afternoon sitting around on the playing fields chatting while the police searched the school.

During class if you need to go anywhere outside of the classroom you usually need a hall pass so you don't get in trouble for being in the hallways during class, it's usually just a piece of paper teachers sign.
