The Lehigh University Police Department issued a Clery Act timely warning Sunday after a burglary was reported at House 84, according to a HawkWatch alert. The email stated LUPD received an emailed report Saturday evening that four males burglarized the residence earlier that day. Officers later confirmed the burglary. Four former members of Chi Psi allegedly entered the house and committed acts of theft and vandalism, according to the email.

In November, when Robert Irwin won “Dancing with the Stars,” he said “Every step that I wish my dad was there, my mom was there. And it was enough.” While I didn’t experience the loss Irwin did, I understand what it means to grow up with a single mother. But I never saw my childhood as different or lacking. If anything, I only noticed it when talking to friends. I would ask about their families and subconsciously focus on their mothers.
