That's also why I suggested that you place two proximity detectors along a single path. The order in which they activate then indicates ingress or egress. In fact, you can simply set the inner-most detector to trigger on-campus-presence, and the outermost detector to set off-campus presence, since the most recent one to activate will indicate ingress or egress. In the case of ingress, activating the outermost detector should simply set the current state (off-campus), then the inner detection sets on-campus presence, and in the case of egress, the innermost detector should set the current state (on-campus), and then at a slightly later time, the outer detector sets his presence to off-campus.
The key then is to figure out all possible paths that Chris uses to enter and exit campus and set a pair of detectors on each (positioned sequentially). Right?
