Parents express concern over student safety at Ohio State

Dark spots on streets, helplessness from armed suspects and an unsatisfactory response from the university on crime are just some of the safety concerns a group of parents have for their kids at Ohio State. In a group interview with The Lantern Monday, a group of Ohio State parents shared their concerns for their children’s safety — which were heightened after the death of Chase Meola, a fifth-year in marketing who was shot and killed outside the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity in October 2020. After months of reaching out to university administration, the parents are unsatisfied with the results. In a universitywide email Friday, University President Kristina M. Johnson announced the addition of light towers and cameras along sidewalks near campus. Police presence and crime patrols will also be increased in the campus area.
