NO! STOP! GET BACK!

Dear Blogger,
Two Saturdays, one of the guys in the program was almost mugged. He was waiting for the Green Line by himself, at around nine, I think, and two guys threatened him and tried to take his wallet. He ran away and told the security guard at the station and they caught the two guys. Apparently they had been looking for these men for a while.
Anyways, don't worry about anything. (That neighborhood he was in is a mile west of Hyde Park, and we never go anywhere alone after night. But I'm not really sure why he was alone...) And honestly, I feel safer in Hyde Park alone at night than I feel when I'm in Albion at night.
It was just one of those things that happens sometimes.
The Chicago Center is making us go to a personal safety program tomorrow night. Besides, who in Hyde Park would mug me? A university student? I would probably end up mugging the mugger.

Be Safe,
Steve
