Faculty Senate to discuss security across campus
Improvements to campus security and safety will be discussed during the Faculty Senate meeting today.
The Faculty Senate will hear presentations on the topic of safety on campus and discuss improvements that can be made to increase the safety of Eastern’s campus.
The group will meet at 2 p.m. in the Booth Library Conference Room.
During the evaluation of campus safety, the Faculty Senate will look at what has happened on campus the last year and see what improvements can be made, said John Pommier, the Faculty Senate chair.
Dan Nadler, the vice president for student affairs, will be providing an update on the upgrades the university has made in the area of campus safety and responding to crises.
“We hope to educate the Faculty Senate on the very important topic,” Nadler said.
Other speakers include the University Police Chief Adam Due, Eric Davidson from the Counseling Center, Rob Miller from the General Counsel, and Heather Webb from the Office of Student Standards
The speakers deal with areas that encompass what safety is, Pommier said.
The senate hopes to inform everyone what the protocol for an emergency is, and where to go if something happens on campus, he added.
“There is a lot to gain from the discussion,” Pommier said.
