■ EMU: Vandalism and
theft problems have
forced officials to look
into improving security
By Brian Womack
Commune ftttxn*
Rising Mcuhty concerns at the
EMU have brought discussion
about changing the tucks or
installing an iu-card security
system in the building
The EMU Board will consider
installing a computerized secu
rity system, at a coat of about
$50,000, that allows only autho
rised card holders to enter the
building, said Dusty Miller,
director of the EMU, Also, the
board will consider replacing
the locks end issuing new keys
to authorized users el a cost of
around $35,000 to $40,000
The system could track who
used which doors si what time,
to thieves and vandals could be
more easily identified. Of the
EMU's nearly 50 doors, only a
few would be accessible from
the outside. Miller said
Though the board h*» yet to
make s decision, one board
member expressed reservations
about installing the security sys
tem
Zachary Kelton. a member of
the board and ASUO vice presi
dent, said lie wants to make sure
the issue* of security are bal
anced with access for student*
"I believe security is impor
tant. but I don't want access put
at risk," Kelton said “We have
24-hour radio programming and
student groups that stay until 4
or 5 in the morning working on
projects."
