SECURITY ASSESSMENTS
Upon request Crime Prevention will conduct an assessment of your facility to identify vulnerabilities in both physical and procedural security, and make recommendations based on those observations. These assessments can be done informally e.g. site visit with verbal recommendations and/or recommendations documented in e-mail, or by formal report. For formal assessments, questionnaires may be used, staff /user interviews may be conducted and photographs of the facility taken depending on the scope of the assessment as determined by the client. Assessments are free of charge. Recommendations are not binding, however the client is responsible for any costs related to the implementation of any recommendations.


SECURITY OUTREACH
If you have a particular crime problem or want to know more about the services offered by Campus Security, we can attend various orientation functions, events residence house meetings, and departmental meetings upon request. Security staff attend residence, departmental and student group meetings throughout the academic year to offer personalized service, help prevent and reduce crime problems, and to become familiar with the unique needs of people living and working in the community.
