I graduated in 04 but went to a lot of different schools, and one of the bigger ones had metal detectors and sometimes a violent (edit: hahaha violent was supposed to be “cop”, what a wild autocorrect from my fat fingered misspelling!) but was also built using prison blueprints so it was very easy to secure that way (one main door and two side doors that stayed locked most of the time), but the smaller schools had nothing, as it would have cost a lot more to set up there and they didn’t have the budget (multiple entryways, many ground floor windows, etc.).
It also probably depends on the region.
I went to a colege with 2 main dorms; one modeled after a prison, the other after a looney bin.
The prison one had halls that connected through bathrooms on each end. The looney bin ones were towers all connected in the basement, with a long and a short side to each floor.
Lol my school was 110 years old in 03. It's still being used.
