Western needs to take serious interest in Registry violence

Western needs to take serious interest in Registry violence

I’m writing to address my concern over the lack of interest pertaining to the shootings and home break-ins at The Registry apartment complex. The most recent shooting happened in broad daylight on a Sunday afternoon.

Adviser thanks participants, clarifies article on Majors and Minors Fair
