I don't quite understand why this article is so intent on shaming the homeless by exposing the name of the accused in connection to his lifestyle while trespassing. Why do we need to discuss the fact that he is so disadvantaged that he must relieve himself in a bottle? These details have very little to do with the purpose of this story, especially since The Lantern does nothing to address the homeless issue around campus (which is obviously the cause of this trespassing and arrest). Way to shame the homeless without offering any information on how to help or statistics on how these people end up living on campus and outside our apartment buildings.
