Jesuit search committee seeks new staff

Ashley criso ’12Assistant News Editor

Campus crime alerts posted by the Department of Public Safety at Saint Joseph’s University have increased due to a recent rise in criminal activity on- and off-campus.According to John Henfey,

director of Public Safety at Saint Joseph’s University, the increase in crime is the result of random incidences, not a pattern of activity.“There are not more criminals

roaming, these are crimes of opportunity,” says Henfey. “An individual is walking alone and is approached by two or more people.” Last week, a St. Joe’s student

was walking near his off-campus residence on 47th Street when he fell victim to a three-man robbery. He was able to call 911, and was shortly picked up by the police. The police car patrolled the area and the victim was able to identify two of the three perpe-trators near Bryn Mawr and City Avenues, both later arrested in connection with the robbery.Public safety has increased

uniformed visible presence on- and off-campus. Bike officers and uniformed officers are continu-ously located on the perimeters of the campus, including 54th Street, 63rd Street, Overbrook Avenue, Cardinal Avenue and City Avenue.Public Safety officers at Saint

Joseph’s University are non-sworn: they do not carry weap-ons or have the power to make arrests. The university hires four Philadelphia police officers, seven days a week, to patrol the perimeters of the university, with two officers in each marked ve-

hicle. Philadelphia police patrol the off-campus area on weekdays between the hours of 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. and weekends between the hours of 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. In addi-tion, Public Safety officers con-tinue to patrol campus in marked vans around the clock.“There are bad people out there

that will always take advantage of a situation of someone who is vulnerable or they feel is vulnera-ble,” says Henfey. “That is why it is important that we collectively do what needs to be done to keep us safe at the university.”The presence of the Philadelphia

police on- and off-campus exists for two main purposes. “One, to patrol around the

perimeters of campus as a visible presence of safety for the Saint Joseph’s Community,” says Hen-fey. “Second, the police depart-ment is responsible for respond-ing to neighborhood complaints in order to maintain a positive quality of life for the surrounding community. The police respond to issues the neighbors report such as trash incidents, loud partying, illegal parking, public urination, etc.”Students have raised concerns

that the increase of “party patrol” may have negatively affected the focus of safety on campus. Henfey responded to this concern by assuring students that the presence of the police and Public Safety will address the concern with highest priority: overall safety.According to Henfey, the De-

partment of Public Safety does not have the authority to write citations for intoxication. The Philadelphia Police, Lower Mer-ion Police, and the Pennsylvania State Police reserve the right

What is a Jesuit university without the presence of Jesuits on campus?Recruitment efforts like those of

Joseph Feeney, S.J., and the rest of the Jesuit recruitment commit-tee aim to counter the decline in Jesuit numbers so St. Joe’s won’t have to find out. The university’s Jesuit recruit-

ment committee consists of four

Jesuits on campus: President Timothy Lannon, S.J., Feeney, Peter Clark, S.J., and Daniel Joyce, S.J. After systematic planning and communication, they have recruited three new Jesuits to come to St. Joe’s for the 2010-2011 academic year: Mario Farrugio, S.J., in theology, Brendan Lally, S.J., in campus ministry, and John Braverman, S.J., in biology.“If we get one [Jesuit] a year we

are very, very happy. [Currently] we are in solidly good shape,” Meet, p. 3 >>

Feeney said.According to the Saint Joseph’s

University website, there are currently 54 Jesuits involved in the campus community. Of that number, 24 actually work at the university. Currently, there are Jesuits in

English, philosophy, theology, biology, and fine arts. Feeney is currently focusing on having a Jesuit in the Haub School of Business and he said that “we have a person possibly on the
