MacVicar also said, “Until the university is able to recruit and train the additional security force personnel that will be needed to increase campus patrols, particularly during the hours of darkness,” state and local law enforcement agencies will continue their patrols through and around the campus. Although MacVicar is making an attempt to “move toward normal operations,” security precautions put into effect in the dormitories after the murder of Nancy Wyckoff, two weeks ago, will be continued, including “round the clock supervision of all units (dormitories),” he said. Oakley Glenn, director of campus security, said he expected to discuss the increased patrols in the dormitory areas on this campus today with University officials. Faculty to pay library fines Beginning spring term, University faculty will be subject to a fine of $1 per day per item on library materials not returned to the library within five days after being called in University Librarian Carl Hintz said last Wednesday this decision was made “in an effort to encourage the prompt return of all types of library materials recalled from faculty when needed by other borrowers.” Currently, faculty members are not subject to a fine for not returning library materials on recall. Students are already subject to the $1 per day per item fine. Head Circulation Librarian Claire Meyer said Sunday that, in the past, faculty members “haven’t been subject to any kind of pressure” to return materials on recall other than a call to a member’s department head or dean This new policy takes effect on the first day of spring term, Wednesday, March 29. The maximum fine on each item will be $10, Hintz said. All library fines collected go into the general fund of the State System of Higher Education
