Security against theft not always guaranteed Bag-check policies leave some KU students with a lighter load By Jennifer Freund Kansan staff writer John Gamble/KANSA Marci Magnuson, lola senior, picks up her books from the mandatory book-bag drop at the Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road. Magnuson said she rarely worried about the safety of her books while shopping. When he returned, he found that his bag had been stolen. Kok Phang, Penang, Malaysia senior, complied with the mandatory bag-check policy at the Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Rd., when she shopping there last Wednesday. Phang said he never was compensated by the Jayhawk Bookstore. He also said he was dismixed that he would not recover his stolen bag. Sohel Khan, Dhaka, Bangladesh senior, had his book bag stolen three years ago. Muggy said that to prevent shoplifting his store required customers to check their bags. He said that theft was not a major "We expect all carry items and parcels that might cause confusion to be left behind behind the cashier counters or left at the unsupervised book drop," he said. Khan, like Phang, also gave uptrying to receive compensation from the Jayhawk Bookstore but only after futile negotiations with Muggy, the KU police and Legal Services for Students. Khan found the stolen text at the Jayhawk Bookstore the next semester, apparently turned in as a used book for money. He said he asked for it back but the owner, Bill Muggy, refused to return it to him. "I was going to ask the Jayhawk Bookstore to sell me my books back at wholesale, and I was hoping maybe my bags would be returned, but now I think my hope is gone," Phang said. Phang and Khan are just two of many KU students who are the victims of theft and are never compensated. Some of these thefts occur at book drops in KU and Lawrence book stores, which don't always offer compensation if belongings are stolen. At first, Phang attempted to negotiate with the Jayhawk Bookstore for compensation, but he gave up when Muggy never returned his calls. problem at his bag check "In the 16 years that we've been in business we've only had three to four actual thefts where the book bags were not recovered," he said. MAT 104321 21 08 2020 10:59 AM Muggy said most bags reported missing were cases of people mistakenly picking up bags that they thought were theirs. Despite the low number of thefts from the book check, Muggy said, security cameras would be installed within the next three to four weeks to provide more security against theft. The Jayhawk Bookstore is not the only book store that has a mandatory book-bag check. "The Jayhawk Bookstore's policies are perpetuating this crime problem," Scott Nehrbass, former legal intern at Legal Services for Students, said. "Because of the lack of security and some of the stories I've heard, I would chose the Kansas Union over the Jayhawk Bookstore," Tetuan said. Renee Tetuan, Topeka freshman, said that she was scared to leave her bag at the Jayhawk Bookstore. Although Muggy said that the bagcheck policy was necessary to prevent shoplifting, some view it as inviting theft. Mike Reid, manager of the Kansas and Burge Union Book Stores, said customers were required to check their bags while shopping during the first week of the spring and fall semesters. Reid said that the system was similar to a coat check. During the rest of the year, bag checking is optional, but no security is provided. He said that the only thefts that he was aware of occurred when bags were checked voluntarily. The University Book Shop is the only book store in Lawrence that does not have a mandatory bag check. Mike Lammers, store manager, said that because his store was removed from campus many students drove and left their bags at home. But if customers bring bags in they are asked to leave it at the cash register. "This is just a request," Lammers said. "If they don't want to leave it, then a clerk will be keeping an eye on them." According to Sgt. Rose Rozmiarek, KU police, 30 book bag thefts have been reported on campus since Aug. 23, 1993.
