Campus Safety Walk Set for Tuesday, Feb. 26

Due to recent events on cam­pus, the UNM Dean of Stu­dents Office will be host­ing their spring Cam­pus Safety Walk a lit­tle ear­lier this semes­ter on Tues­day, Feb. 26 at 6:30 p.m. Those inter­ested in par­tic­i­pat­ing should report to the SUB Ball­room C at 6:30 p.m. for instructions.

The cam­pus walks are usu­ally held twice a year in the spring and fall semes­ters. Par­tic­i­pants walk around cam­pus in teams iden­ti­fy­ing any issues with light­ing, emer­gency phones, land­scape haz­ards and any other safety con­cerns they feel need to be addressed. Eval­u­at­ing the cam­pus helps the appro­pri­ate per­son­nel address safety con­cerns that will help make the cam­pus safer for the UNM community.

“These safety walks are a good way to address con­cerns and also serve as a reminder to stu­dents, staff and vis­i­tors to be aware of their sur­round­ings on cam­pus,” said Kim Kloep­pel, interim dean of students.

For more infor­ma­tion on the safety walk con­tact Rob Bur­ford in the Dean of Stu­dents Office at 277‑3361 or rburford@unm.edu.
