Dixie State University is , one of the safest schools in the nation, but that doesn't mean students shouldn't be prepared to tackle dangerous situations. According to DSU crime statistics, on DSU's campus crimes against property are more common than crimes against people, but harassment still happens especially through technology. Ron Isaacson, captain security officer, said there are a number of ways for a student to ensure their safety. "Make sure if you're walking alone at night, especially if you're a female, walk with somebody; have someone there with you," Isaacson said. Another precaution students should take is to make sure vehicle doors are always locked and to be aware of any potential theft opportunities. Isaacson said the campus security department receives about four reports of 6-- Is, harass- ment a semester, making it a fairly common situation for DSU students.

The controversial social media star returned with a new video Sunday, barely a month after he posted a New Year's Eve video with a suicide victim in Japan's Aokigahara forest. In a video, Paul first appears as a bearded, shirtless man on the beach. "The maverick Logan Paul, showing his face for the first time after the disgraced You Tuber has been spotted across the country, hiding his face from paparazzi and seen swallowing his tears on social media like a little baby," a nar- rator says. "Yo, hold up," the YouTube star responds. "Disgraced?' What you mean 'disgraced,' boy? I took a break. Besides, I'm still lit as f k. What other You Tuber k break can take a and still get a million subscribthree-wee- ers?" You Tube cut ties with Paul, who recently pledged $1 million to suicide prevention groups.

In his new video, Paul said he has come back "more knowledgeable, more compassionate." "I know for a fact everything I do from this point on will get criticism, it will get backlash, because I'm a very polarizing dude. You either love me, or you hate me," he said.
