So often College Districts get a negative connotation in a community due to the increased crime they generate. Most of the crime is not real bad mostly kids screwing around, although some is indeed problematic to local crime statistics. I propose allowing College Districts to participate in Neighborhood Mobile Watch Programs to help them achieve a better standing in the community and increase their goodwill. It makes sense from a Public Relations relation standpoint for College Districts to be involved. For instance consider that;

COLLEGE DISTRICTS: College districts are great because that is where students are; students have energy and want to change the World. This helps educate them about the program. They make great volunteers for future community endeavors and have great ideas. Colleges tend to have large budgets and much facility needs and therefore have all kinds of equipment and vehicles. They have ride on lawn mowers, street sweepers, supervisory cars, sports department transportation, utility pickups, etc. Lots of support and often that younger generation does have their percentage of problems. Car break-ins, drunk drivers, rapes, stabbings etc. occur at or around the school. This program will help curb some of that crime and make the kids responsible and part of the solution instead.

If a Public Relations program for a College District can re-position itself as part of the solution rather than part of the problem this is indeed best for all concerned. So please consider all this in 2006.
