Join the Campus Lighting Safety Walk

An event with free pizza and T-shirts has to be just for students, right? Not this time! We’re talking about the Campus Safety Lighting Walk, when staff and faculty as well as students are invited to help keep the night bright.

Facilities Management holds this event every winter in partnership with the Police Department. Volunteers will split into teams to walk different zones to look for lights that are not working or too dim, and areas that may need additional lighting. Teams will turn over their notes to Facilities Management for the scheduling of lighting repairs.

As promised, campus authorities last week activated new emergency call stations in the arboretum and along the West Village bike path across Highway 113.

The call stations are cylindrical, painted blue, with blue lights near the top and cameras at the very top.

“These new emergency call boxes will help us improve safety by delivering immediate access to dispatch and live-stream video footage to record what’s happening in the area,” said Brian Buckley, security director with the Police Department.
