    they were able to identify themen when they attemptedto steal textbooks again Aug.30. The suspects failed toremove all of the loss preven-tion tags, which set off thealarm, and were asked toleave the store.

    Young said he believesthere might be more incidentsrelated to the investigation.

    Informational emails aresent when there is a series ofrelated crimes and thats thecase here, he said. Were notonly looking to identify (thesuspects), but we also dont

    want anyone else falling forthis.

    Young said DPS is request-ing information from anyone

    who has been approachedand is asking students toreport to DPS immediately ifthey are approached.

    The loss of the booksis one thing, but to involvea student and endanger astudent in some way is some-

    thing were trying to prevent,Powell said.

    Sophomore Becka Brownsaid she thought StudentStores strict policies woulddeter shoplifters.

    Honestly, it seems likepretty tight security to me,she said.

    Theyve got the systemdown so that (thefts) are not acommon thing.

    Freshman SamanthaElkins said if she were to

    be approached, she doesntthink she would fall for thescheme.

    Its kind of the same aswhen you have (homelesspeople) on Franklin trying to

    ask for money, she said.You just have to kind of

    brush it off and keep going.

    intelligence about the NSAsurveillance practices.

    The government hasacknowledged since theSnowden leak that it is usingthe section to collect meta-data about every phone callmade or received at a resi-dence in the United States,Preston said.

    We are challenging thatas a violation of the Fourth

    Amendment.The Fourth Amendment

    guarantees that citizens havea right to be protected fromunreasonable searches andseizures without a warrant.

    Preston said the lawsuitcame after the ACLU learned

    Verizon was ordered by theU.S. Foreign IntelligenceSurveillance Court to turn overphone records for all users fora three-month period. Thenational ACLU is a Verizoncustomer.

    They believe that theres aviolation of their employees

    privacy, of their customersprivacy and (the privacy) ofanyone else calling us to getinformation, she said.

    Duarte said some are con-cerned about the amount ofinformation the NSA has beencollecting.

    The problem is whenthe NSA collects data from

    Verizon customers, they col-lect all of it before they haveany information about wheth-er this person has done any-thing wrong or not, she said.

    Instead of showing theyhave a reason that someonehas done something wrong,they are mass-collecting thedata.

    Duarte said the impacts ofmass collection could impactcommunications and thechoices about what groups toassociate with.

    Woolery said if privacy isthreatened, there could be achilling effect on what peoplechoose to communicate andcould compromise their First

    Amendment rights.The concern in this case

    is that if you are worried thatsomeone, in this case thegovernment, (is) reading youremails, then youll be morelikely to censor yourself, shesaid.

    happens and when you reachthat number something magi-cal happens.

    Sokal said Fredricksonspaper is flawed because itlacks justification for themodel created by Losada.

    A newcomer to the field ofpsychology and not an expert

    in math sees whats going onin this paper when the authordidnt, the reviewers didnt,something happened, he said.

    And somehow over 300people have cited this articlein scholarly literature and ithad over 25,000 Google hits.

    Despite the criticism,Losada stands by his methods.

    I have gathered data fromhundreds of teams and my newand extensive data set unequiv-ocally supports the Losadaratio (P/N = 3) in teams, asa threshold of high perfor-mance, he said in an email.

    Fredrickson published apaper in 2013 titled UpdatedThinking on Positivity Ratios

    in response to one publishedby Brown, Sokal and Friedmancriticizing her 2005 paper.

    But she said only the math-ematics behind the 2.9013tipping point was flawed, andevery other element is valid.

    The value of a ratio andraising ones ratio for happinessisnt in question, she said.

    Fredrickson said shecollaborated with Losada

    because of his expertise.His past work had been

    peer-reviewed and I acceptedit as valid, she said.

    She said science relies ontrusting the people youre col-laborating with despite risk.

    If you fail to collaborate

    and learn from each otherthen youre keeping the reachof science very small.
