Up until a couple of days ago, Northwestern was just your typical college in a tranquil town off of Lake Michigan. Now, it's crazy scary!!!

Last Wednesday, a girl was attacked while walking in her alley on Hinman and Clark at 6 p.m. As she got closer to her apartment door, "a man grabbed her from behind and put his hand over her mouth." The girl screamed and the creepo ran away.

Then two students were victims of an attempted robbery while walking on Maple at 1:15 a.m. on Monday. A man, holding some sort of shiny object, approached them from behind and demanded money. But the kids said, "**** that!" and managed to escape unharmed.

Now that Evanston has become the North Shore version of a Hellmouth... check out this page on safety tips!
