Humans vs Zombies at University of Washington, faculty nervous

Parental update: Just a quick note to assure you that the roughly $25 – $38 thousand dollars per year that you are spending on your offspring’s education at University of Washington is being thoroughly enjoyed. This is why you scrimped, saved, and didn’t buy that sports car, after all.

The tag game ‘Humans vs Zombies’ which makes crossing campus a lot more interesting for bored students and cool Professors, has drawn fire from buzz kill educators recently. Professor Mary Callahan’s complaint reads in part:

"I had an encounter with a student dressed in combat fatigues, carrying a dark (toy) rifle strapped over his shoulder, and perched in the window of the fourth floor stairwell of Thomson Hall,"

For some reason, the encounter made the good Professor nervous in the aftermath of Tuscon, and numerous other incidents involving similarly equipped loners.
No problem, if necessary, players claim they will ban the toy weapons resort to something with potential stun power, smelly sweat socks. The latter only looks deadly, the former have the potential to be WMD’s. Keep the checks coming Mom & Dad, your special student will write when he or she comes out of hiding – as a Human or a Zombie, love them anyway.
