The log contains the common bathroom vandalism. On Nov. 4, 2009 campus police discovered damaged property in the men's restroom of the Education 2 building.
Callers reported dirty pictures, you might expect to find in restrooms, on campus trees. On Nov. 15, 2009 reports were filed of male genitalia carved into a ficus tree in lot 6. Trees in lot 4 had the same design.
That same day, someone a little late for Halloween tagged the stalls and trash can of the men's restroom in the Education 2 building with black and orange marker.
"It's a shame that a school with such a high academic reputation is littered with such juvenile chicken scratches!" says CSULB senior, Spencer Rummler. "Although, you know what i noticed in one bathroom? I can't remember where I saw this, but they installed white boards! I thought that was a creative solution. People could still get their 'grafitti on' with easy clean up."
As for outside of the restrooms, Rummler hasn't noticed any vandalism. If you too have missed these defacings, perhaps it is due to the campus's cleanup crew's immediate attention to this matter. On Nov. 25, 2009 campus police received a report of graffiti on the campus' south wall, off of Bellflower Boulevard. When police arrived at the scene, the cleanup crew was already covering the graffiti with paint.
According to Lt. Scot Willey the south end of campus attracts the most vandalism because it's close proximity to Seventh Street.
