Weber High to maintain hall-pass restrictions
11:38 PM
About a month ago, the school was plagued with rumors and threats that gang members planned to converge on or near the school for a fight, Stokes said. School bosses took the threats seriously, and secured law enforcement officers to patrol the campus and maintain a presence inside the school.Students had to wear their school ID badges and were stopped by administrators or police if IDs weren't visible. The school also implemented hall-pass restrictions to keep students in class. "We did it for safety reasons. We needed to know at a glance if it was our student in the building or someone else," Stokes said. The days passed without incident, and the ID edict was no longer enforced. But the hall-pass
restriction was, mainly because of its byproducts. Thefts of student property, either from lockers or locker rooms, plummeted from an average 15 a month
to virtually zero, Stokes said. Vandalism incidents also went from an average three a week to nothing. A survey showed that up to 98 percent of people surveyed said they feel safe at Weber High.

One key to many locks
9:09 PM
Surat-based Mahindra Brothers, a jewellery store, uses smart cards to manage its employees and sub-contractors. The jeweller relies on smart cards to restrict admission to its jewellery polishing and design houses, says Krishna Prasad H.S., Product Marketing Manager, Systems, Security Technology Division, Bosch. A tuition provider for engineering studies in Mumbai is also taking the smart route. It has issued smart cards instead of ID cards to students availing of tuition. Previously, the provider faced discrepancies and defaulters. Many students would attend the wrong classes, or pursue extra tuition without deigning to register themselves.
