The familiar blue lights that students trust to protect them from trouble are having troubles of their own.

Some blue lights are out of order, sporting notices instructing those in need to call U of L Police or 911. Students brought concerns about the malfunctioning units to SGA Services Vice President Lauren Greenwell, who discussed the situation with ULPD.

Many of the emergency phones need major software updates to work properly, however, the technology is so outdated that further updates will not be possible much longer.
