Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 417 Argument at the meeting
On weekdays, the Connecticut Auditorium is the seat of the Yale Department of Philosophy, so Carter is no stranger to this place.

Stepping into the noisy auditorium, Carter quickly found the seat where the council group was located and sat down.I was also secretly thinking about what Rick advised me in the morning.Carter doesn't think his thinking is wrong:
Lifting the ban on the right to hold guns, privately, this makes oneself feel more secure; publically, compared to the unknown campus crimes, the current problem of off-campus crimes is more serious, right? !
The immediate problem has not been solved yet, still think about the future? !
As the start time of the meeting approached, people from all walks of life entered the venue one after another.
Next to the Council is the Graduate Senate, followed by the University Council, the school-level administrative cadre group, including Fabien Anfinsen, the director of the campus police station, and the president Giama, and then the professor committees of various professional colleges. , as well as the deans of the residential colleges.

Speaking of it, Yale's management system is similar to that of the US government.It is also playing the set of separation of powers.

For example, the university council is in charge of campus legislation.Carter, their council, and the Graduate Senate are responsible for student administration. As for the judicial power, it belongs to the school leaders and the professor committees of each school.

In another direction, Yale promotes decentralized professor governance.That is to say, the principal's power is not great at Yale, and he is a bit like a mascot.
In addition to being able to directly appoint administrative officials, academic posts and academic officials are basically only signed by him.But for nomination and selection, there are professor selection committees of various professional colleges, and the autonomy of each branch is also very large.Basically, they are in charge of their own affairs, which is a bit like enfeoffment.

When it comes to residential colleges, the deans are usually full-time professors of various subjects, and the resident scholars and Fellows are basically part-time jobs.They have management functions, but usually they don't do much, leaving it to the students themselves.They are only needed when it comes to things such as the need to approve a leave of absence, or to change the facilities of the residential college.

As for the school managers, Yale's school managers can be described as the most insignificant school managers.They don't even have the power to manage school affairs, and it basically becomes an honorary title.

For example, at this time, there was such a serious security problem on the campus.The Yale Board of Trustees didn't even have a representative, and they didn't even bother to attend the audition. It's like you're making a fuss about it.
"Ahem. Radisson, my Jets"

Just as Carter watched a large group of people sit down and think about the link, the principal, Mr. Giama, knocked on the microphone in front of him and presided over the meeting.

As usual, they first briefed on the situation on Friday night, and commended Carter, Jeff, and Kaia for their bravery.
Carter, who had no preparation in advance, and no one notified that there would be this round, got up by surprise and accepted the applause of the crowd, and then there was nothing else.Compared with the domestic practice of being brave and brave, Yale's praise seems extremely perfunctory.

After quickly finishing the antecedents, the topic of the meeting also came to the consequences:

"Gentlemen, the external security situation is getting worse and worse, so that even our Yale campus has such appalling incidents. The need to strengthen campus security is imminent. Next, let's discuss your suggestions. Professor Thompson, Let your School of Management speak first!"

As a school of management where students were actually killed, it was only natural that they be the first to speak.Carter and everyone's eyes turned to the representative team of the School of Management.
"Okay, Mr. Giama. For the murder of Brian, we in the School of Management are very sad. Regarding the strengthening of campus security, we have the following statement:"

"One, the campus police department must be responsible for this matter! According to the testimonies of the students involved, the campus police officers on duty near the law school at that time heard the cries for help from Grove Street! But they did not choose the first time Going to the rescue caused Bryan to miss the best time for rescue, and even if there were not a few brave students such as Black and Jeff who came forward, I am afraid that Ms. Teach would not have escaped bad luck."

When Professor Thompson said this, he nodded friendlyly to where Carter was.While Carter nodded in return, he couldn't help casting a suspicious look at Campus Police Chief Anfinsen.

Dude, were there cops around at that time? !

"Excuse me, Professor Thompson, I need to speak for my officers here. It was the peak time for law school evening study students leaving the study room, and there were liberal arts students next door. My officers They did hear a cry for help, but without knowing the extent of the threat, they took the lead in guiding the students to evacuate at the intersection of York Street on Wall Street, which was crowded with people, to avoid further damage. I don’t think their handling procedures were completely wrong.”

"Fart! This is not a mistake, what is a mistake?! Director Anfinsen, don't you want to say that in order to save ten people, you would rather sacrifice one person?! Without this statement, everyone's right to life cannot be priced before the law Exchange. Whether it's one person or ten people, they are on an equal footing in front of life power!"

As soon as Director Anfinsen's words came out, Professor Thompson from the School of Management hadn't refuted yet.On the contrary, it was the law school who spoke first. Although he was speaking for himself, he was somewhat suspected of being wolf-hearted.
After all, the school police were the first to evacuate the law school students, right? !
"In addition, when faced with criminals who are committing harmful acts, the first priority of the police should be to prevent the harmful acts from happening, not to prevent the possible expansion of the harm! If you can arrive in time and kill the criminals, what else will you do? Is the damage in your mouth magnified?! You're making excuses!"

"Professor Martino! We don't have a law that requires the police to stop the harm that is happening. Don't forget, the police have discretion on the scene! When they just hear the call for help, they can It is foreseeable that a vicious crime is happening, but it is impossible to know whether the other party is committing the crime individually or in a gang."

As soon as the voice of Professor Martino of the Law School fell, the dean of Buckley College immediately followed up.In defense of the Campus Police Department:

"It is also impossible to confirm the armed forces of the criminals. If it is a team-type gunman who commits the crime. Only two campus police officers on duty will not be able to effectively control the crime. On the contrary, they may die, and the students will not be evacuated in time, which will lead to A greater disaster has occurred!"

"Dean Browning, aren't you too selfish in what you said?! Didn't you just watch the second scene of Hewitt, which is too close to your Barkley College?! I want to ask, the students of our college last night When you single-handedly, risk your life to help a classmate in distress, what are you doing at Barkley College?!"

"With a distance of two steps, I don't believe that no one in your entire courtyard heard the movement! What? The life of your Barkley students is life, and our freshmen's life is not life?!"
