The university president, Christina paxson, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/josh-hawley-becomes-gop-cash-cow-despite-dem-targeting\/\" title=\"Josh Hawley Becomes \u2018GOP Cash Cow\u2019 Despite Dem Targeting\">faced intense criticism<\/a> for the lack of security measures, notably the absence of surveillance cameras in the building where the incident occurred. It took authorities five days to apprehend the suspect, who later died by suicide, raising concerns about campus safety and the vulnerability caused by inadequate security.<\/p>\n<p>Critics highlighted that despite Brown&#8217;s notable endowment, the campus remains largely open and accessible without proper controls, with many buildings not requiring ID access and doors often left propped open.This &#8220;open-campus&#8221; approach has drawn comparison to broader open-border policies, criticized by some as compromising public safety. Officials, including the Providence mayor, described the campus as lacking physical barriers like gates or walls, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/appeals-court-oks-disarming-defendants-before-theyre-convicted\/\" title=\"Court allows disarming defendants before conviction\">allowing unrestricted access<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>During a press conference, a reporter challenged President Paxson on the missing cameras, urging her to acknowledge the security gaps, which she downplayed. The incident has sparked debate about the university&#8217;s security priorities, the cost of attendance versus safety, and the influence of progressive policies on campus enforcement and public safety.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Brown University President Christina Paxson got hammered for the inexcusable security lapses on campus that likely resulted in the shooting deaths of two students over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>It took five days for law enforcement to capture the alleged gunman, who reportedly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/police-probe-links-between-brown-university-shooting-killing-mit-professor-2025-12-18\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">committed suicide<\/a> on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The numerous days it took for authorities to identify the suspect has raised questions about why an Ivy League school with an $8 billion endowment had no security cameras in the section of the building where two students were slaughtered.<\/p>\n<p>Because of this shocking security lapse, the gunman was allowed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/illegal-indian-truck-driver-accused-of-killing-american-has-been-released-from-jail-despite-vehicular-homicide-charges\/\" title=\"Illegal Indian Truck Driver Accused of Killing American Has Been Released from Jail Despite Vehicular Homicide Charges\">roam free &#038;mdash<\/a>;
