| Decision: | The Campus Affairs Committee voted to send an informational report to the SEC and Senate. |
| Actions: | The Campus Affairs Committee addressed its charge by designing and disseminating a survey to identify the top safety and security concerns experienced by each constituency, and by conducing additional outreach to Facilities Management to receive feedback from non-exempt staff, who were not well represented in the survey. The committee reviewed all results and identified commonalities between faculty, staff, and students in concerns related to safety and security at night, building security, pedestrian and traffic safety, and police presence, preparedness, and alerts. At its meeting on March 24, 2014, the committee voted to compile the results of the survey and other information into a report to be forwarded to the SEC and Senate for informational purposes. |
