Misuse prompts change in security’s escort prograin
' By Julie Freeman
" (MHw.bmrdd' . • •
’: Th<* Office of Public 'Safety has adopted an ex
. peri mental shuttle .van program to replace-it.s nightly
. priyatn escort service, which suffered from a lack of
vehicles and'personnel*fall term. •
• '. The service wilj run at hourly intervals throughout
the campus area and have scheduled pick-up and drop
off siteS between fi p ro. and midnight daily. It will dif
fer'from the previous system of accepting individual
calls, with drivers going door-to-door throughout the
evening
"We felt that the other system was gettinK a bit out
of hand." said Sgt. Marjorie Bigelow, of Campus
Security.
The service became so overloaded that Campus
Security was traveling almost ItH) miles every night to
pick up and deliver those who called for a ride, Bigelow
said.
The new van will seat a total of 12 people, which
Bigelow said makes more sense than picking people up
one-by-one.
Originally, the program was meant to provide in
dividualized service for students who had to travel
alone at night and were concerned about their safety.
But Bigelow said she feels many people began
abusing it because of its convenience.
"It got to the point where many people were just
calling for rides, but weren't necessarily afraid for their
personal safety," she said.
Campus Security will continue to escort women in
emergency situations. regardless, of.the time. Bigelow
added, saying that her,officers main concert! fa Still
safety; : . o“ • .,
,Walking gkorts wiH also continue to be prpvided °
V by members of the Lambda Chi “Alpha fraiernity. in con-.:
junction wifbdampus security. . „ •• ” •
This service, offered Monday through Saturday
from 5 p.m. td 8 p.m;,.is usually quite busy, said Jeff
Stonel vice president of the fraternity.
"We average between 6 to 8 a night and on foot that
works out to be cpiite a few escorts." Stone said.
Meanwhile, the ASUO is still making plans to im
plement a similar shuttle service of its own. which they
hope will eventually replace the one now offered by
• Campus Security.
"We hope to have our escort service in place by
winter term," said Debra kester. ASUO state affairs
coordinator.
Finding a source of funding for the project is a pro
blem, however, and is holding up progress. Kester said.
Campus Security approves the idea of an ASUO
shuttle and would eventually like to see the ASUO take
responsibility for all shuttle service on campus.
"We’d be delighted if the ASUO was successful
and took over the whole operation," Bigelow said.
"We are not in competition with the ASUO ser
vice," she added. “We need all the help we can get."
For more information about route schedules and
tunos for the shuttle service, call the Office of Public
Safety at 686-5444.
