Based on Bill Scott's experience, retaining all emails and logging
each contact would be wise. Discussing it w/security with the caveat
of not wanting the student prosecuted should also be in writing,
especially with the knee-jerk reaction that Bill recently experienced.

Nancy- I would add one caveat. I don't think you did anything wrong.
You were nice. When that becomes wrong we are all up the proverbial
creek. But my addition would be to note that you might discuss this
with your security or campus safety officer(s). Perhaps they'd have
a good word or idea. I would make it plain that I don't want the
student prosecuted or anything but that I'm just asking for advice.
That way, if you do need to ask for assistance (unlikely!) they will
be up to speed. I suspect this is just a person who is a little
needy. Your only recourse as a response to the student would, as you
say, likely involve embarrassment and perhaps worse. If you try to
be nice, by responding, I think it likely that it will not have the
effect you desire. :) Good luck with this one. Tim
