In 2001 the Managing Editor of ''The Brunswickan,'' Patryk Reid, described the average Campus Police officer as being equipped with "little more than street-smarts, a middle-aged body, walkie-talkie, and a green uniform." He suggested that the Campus Police would be much more effective, and better equipped to deal with parking and drug violators if they were given horses: "A horse makes a person three times taller, lets her see five times as far, and move ten times as fast... Moreover, a CP on horseback would look bigger and tougher... (and could) catch any running person, and even catch cars by short-cut."
