Associate Vice President for Safety and Security Eric M. Heath discussed recent initiatives in campus safety and transportation undertaken by the department.
The advisory council was formed after a review of campus police services was completed by a special task force established by COM President David Wain Coon.
In May of last year, the University announced, to little fanfare, that it was establishing its inaugural Public Safety Advisory Council. Composed of decorated academics, passionate community members, and students (myself included), it was intended to create a forum for assessing campus security. Part of our charter includes working alongside the University of Chicago Police.
