FaNiqua Hill says, "I am at shocked! Robert is a well respected man and he demonstrated such love and care to each and every student. He is the type of man who never missed a beat of making individuals smile and laugh! He is always willing to help in anyway he can whether it's big or small and not once did he fail to be at our rescue! In all four years of being a student at MBC not one bad word was spoken towards Robert from anyone that I know of!"
Ciarra Mccloud says, "Mr. Robert was a professional man who enforced security, showed respect and communicated amongst everyone. He was dedicated to his job and duties.

Himanshi Patel says, "Mary Baldwin College One of the few things you told us when we moved to campus was to communicate; if there was a problem, let someone know. And the one time we are doing what we truly feel, do not let us down. We love Robert very much. He has done the smallest things that has lightened up our days; putting a smile on our faces, making us baked foods, and definitely cheering us up with his great sense of humor.

The sheer weight of this support shows Mary Baldwin College that we are not going to move on from their disgraceful treatment of Mr. Richardson. These administrators think they can sweep a beloved staff member under the rug and expect us to go quiet but they picked the wrong campus to try that with.

Mary Baldwin College has ranked number 5 in the state of Virginia for safety. Without a second thought I know this is because of Robert's dedication and hard work to keeping the students safe. If this is not the direction that the college wishes to go in then I fear for the college.
Robert is the heart of mbc. Campus wont feel the same without him watching over us. Totally ridiculous decision.
So upset about this. He was always so kind to me and my friends. This school is making a huge mistake.
I remember him checking on me whenever i was walking back to the dorms late from the library. He made me feel safe every single time. Why would you fire someone like that?
BRING HIM BACK. Dude is a legend and actually cared about the students unlike some of the other staff there.
To President Fox, I ask you to please re-think the dismissal of Mr. Richardson and listen to your current students and alumni. Someone who is so respected and admired is a great value to Mary Baldwin College. As a family member of a recent MBC graduate (Class 2014). I would like to think that the students safely on MBC campus would be high on the list properties for MBC staff and the president of the college. Seeing that’s MCB is ranked as one of Virginia’s Safest residential college campus in Virginia – top 5 overall. I would hope it would be the goal of MBC to maintain sure a great standing. To hear that such a beloved person as Mr. Richardson, Head of security was let go, because “he doesn’t fit their model” is very dishearten to me. Makes me wonder if the values that MBC teaches and has posted on their web page are true statements? ? If there is a truly a valid reason then let your former and current students and staff know the truth! They have a right to know the whole story and not just pieces of the story.
Robert was a staple to the MBC community. Without Robert, security will have no direction. He was the total package - he put his crew to work, he was there when we needed him, safety to him is his top priority, he treated each and every one of the girls at MBC like his family. He knows the campus, campus surroundings, and the people of Staunton inside and out, who better for the job? He has connections in all the right places and there never was a dull moment. He is motivating and did more than his 'job titles' worth for the campus. Robert shouldn't have to 'fit a mold', because Robert is a leader and Robert put the 'security' in Campus Security. Any institution would be lucky to have Robert on their staff. Anyone that gets the pleasure to meet Robert has been blessed by a truly amazing, spirited, motivated, courageous, brave, intelligent man. I don't feel safe without Robert, and I know I can say the same for majority of the student body.

Robert was in fact, the most reliable and understanding man under mbc security's department. If he could not help he would always try to make any situation better to brighten our spirits. He definitely was a father figure to many and our biggest protector. It is sad to hear that mbc has let such a motivating force go. Please bring back Robert!
