The weekend was rocked by a random attack on Howard University students by a mob of teenagers that made its rounds on social media. According to WTOP, the group of teenage boys chased around residence halls and fought the students.
The Howard community, including parents, faculty, and administration, was very concerned by the group's ability to infiltrate the campus and cause harm. To make matters worse, a student who witnessed the incident posted to TikTok, saying that her classmate was “left to die” while security looked the other way.
At a town hall to address the issue, it was revealed that the university had been tracking a teen “fight club” in case their rising threat ever made its way to Howard. The COO and EVP of Howard University, Dr. Tashni-Ann Dubroy, stated that the group went to restaurants to instigate fights and that the incident had become viral due to their strategy.
In order to remedy the security issues, the university is introducing a multimillion-dollar plan to install over 1,000 security cameras and new identification measures such as smart-card readers. They are also introducing their freshman class to campus in a days-long event called “Bison Week” to ensure the upcoming year is the safest yet.
The attack has caused a stir of emotions amongst the students at Howard University. It is clear that the school is taking this matter seriously and doing everything they can to ensure the safety of its students. With the new security measures and the introduction of Bison Week, the university is sending a message that they are here to protect and provide a safe campus for all of its students.
