I see both sides, but the Notre Dame campus is a potential target.

Perhaps any university could be targeted by terrorists or a nut looking to make a statement via a mass shooting. Notre Dame has a heightened profile as both a prominent catholic university and being center stage for college football.

As in any privacy intrusion question, it comes down to reasonableness in striking a balance between protecting public/student safety vs protecting the privacy of the comings and goings of thousands of citizens.

I frankly know very little about the technology, and more importantly, the effectiveness and reliability of disseminated information captured by the cameras. [Are these cameras simply the suggestion of general counsel to provide cover???]

Not taking a side. But, it is worthy of a conversation.
