per the Daily's Editorial Board:

Funding a new public safety program would also help the Vikings’ public image more than new playgrounds or an appearance from Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson — two ideas the franchise reportedly pitched during negotiations with the University.

With an NFL team, thousands of fans and all the accompanying fanfare arriving on campus, safety will be an even bigger concern next fall.

Students, neighborhoods, the University and the Vikings all stand to benefit from a new, collaborative neighborhood safety initiative.

The money is already on the table, and we hope the University and community groups will put it toward crime prevention.
