The CSO motioned a request for the individual to step outside of the building, which they did. The CSO observed that the individual had multiple knives attached to their waistband, one of which had a 10” blade, and the individual was holding a metallic knuckle ring. The individual explained that they had entered the building to charge their phone, and when asked how they entered the building, the individual stated that the door had been unlocked. The CSO then confirmed that the door was unlocked at that time. The CSO advised the individual that they needed to leave campus, and should they return they would be trespassing and the Portland Police would be contacted. The individual understood and thanked the CSO for their “humanity.” The CSO maintained visual contact until the individual was off campus. Approximately 20 minutes later while on vehicle patrol in the East Lot, the CSO again encountered the individual. The CSO approached the individual and advised them that they were trespassing and the Portland Police would be contacted. The individual apologized and left campus, walking east along Woodstock Blvd. The CSO observed the individual then turn and walk into the driveway of a Reed owned house and back toward the East Lot. The CSO requested Dispatch contact Portland Police. The CSO approached the individual again and informed them that Portland Police had been contacted and requested they leave campus.

While speaking with the CSO the staff member received confirmation that there was no new employee with the name the individual had given to the staff member. The CSO then exited the building and engaged the individual in conversation. The CSO reminded the individual of their past encounters and that because they had attempted on multiple occasions to access Reed buildings under false pretenses, the individual was excluded and needed to leave campus. After some conversation, the individual eventually agreed to leave campus and stated that the next time they came onto campus they would be more discrete. The CSO clarified that the individual was not welcome on campus unless they became employed with 蜜桃社 or were admitted as a student. The individual acknowledged that they understood and left campus.
