The gourmands over at Post- have an urgent warning for newcomers to College Hill:

Remember that the box of Cheez-It and two bottles of seltzer your mom left with you (or bag of unsalted almonds and vegan cruelty-free seaweed shake mix, if you’re that kind of freshman) are going to disappear real soon—and we may be, to paraphrase the Legion trailer, the only chance you have for survival.

Hey, eat what you want, but don’t say they didn’t try to warn you. Click here to read the full post.

ProJo: ‘Peeping Tom’ suspect found

Has the Wriston peeping Tom been found?

The Providence Journal reports today that a Woonsocket man has been detained after allegedly impersonating a public utilities worker to gain access to Goddard House:

The police say Justin A. Álvarez, 20, of Loring Street, Woonsocket, is connected to four similar incidents in which a man gained entry into women’s bathroom and shower areas and tried to photograph female students in the shower.

The Herald first broke the peeping Tom story in March, when a female student told police that “a college-age guy” entered Diman House and photographed her while in the shower. About a month later, The Herald reported a similar incident in Sears House, this time by someone described as “a male with a light complexion; possibly white or Hispanic approximately five feet six inches tall, lean build, dark hair, cut short, with a week’s worth of facial hair growth” by the Department of Public Safety.

DPS Chief Mark Porter later said the second incident was “not related” to the first, though this latest development seems to call that into question.

Look for Herald coverage of the incident later this week.
