University Daily Kansan. October 14, 1983 Page 11 KU police plan 'campus watch' By MICHAEL PAUL Staff Reporter A crime prevention program called "campus watch" will begin in KU residence halls in the first week of Fall 2014. Department lieutenant said yesterday. Lt. Jeanne Longaker said the program, which the department has been planning for several months, would subsidize the need for students to be suspends of possible crimes in residence halls and report them to KU police. Longaker said that staff members from Joseph R. Pearson Hall, Lewis Hall, Oliver Hall, Hashinger and GSP-Corbin had indicated that they were willing to participate in the program. She also said that Stouffer Place staff members were interested in the program. THE DIVISION OF Community Services of the KU Police Department will work with residence hall assistants to promote the program. If enough people from a hall are interested, an introductory meeting will be scheduled to the goals of the program and crime prevention methods will be discussed. Throughout the year, the Division of Community Services will provide additional information about crime prevention programs about crime prevention. The purpose will be to make students Stephen Phillips/KANSAN alert about activities in and around the hall, to identify suspicious activity and to report such activities to the police. Longaker said a key part of the program was the posting of blue and white "campus watch" signs near those residence halls where students have indicated a willingness to participate in the program. The message on the 18-by-12 inch signs is, "Campus Watch. 844-1000. We call the Police." LONGAKER SAID SIGNS would not be posted near residence halls where students had not indicated a willingness to participate in the program. "If we put up the signs but no one is interested,we'd lose effectiveness," she said." The KU Police Department will pay for the警官 and their installation, including equipment. LONGAKER SAID THE program was a part of the crime prevention program on the KU campus that began in 1978. Sgt. Mary Ann Robison of the KU Police Department, who has been explaining the program this semester to residence hall staffs, said that other KU police crime prevention programs were concerned more with protecting the individual than protecting the community. For example, she said, Operation I.D. was a program that encouraged students to engrave their names on their possessions. But campus watch, she said, was begun for a different reason. "This program will have more of an emphasis on people calling in any suspicious activity they see, of looking about themselves, of knowing the patterns of behavior of the people who live near them," she said. LONGAKER SAID THAT statistics compiled by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and other police statistical magazines indicated that "neighborhood watch" programs had been effective. National, state and local leaders in education will come to Lawrence next month to discuss "A Nation at Risk," a report by the National Commission on Education that suggests reforms in U.S. education, the KU director of Associated Students of Kansas said yesterday. Christopher Edmonds, the director, said the conference, which will take place on either Nov. 30 or Dec. 1, would focus on possible reforms in elementary and high school education. By the Kansan Staff Education leaders to convene here Edmonds said the KU conference would supplement ASK's proposed legislative platform on education, which was developed after their graduation. In a proposal for more demanding high school graduation requirements, "I think this is the best way to attract the influential leaders that will have an impact on educational conditions in the near future." Edmonds said. ROBERT V. HADERLEIN, one of the authors of "Nation at Risk," will come to Lawrence to discuss the report. Cindy Harris, the Midwest regional director of the U.S. Department of Education, will also attend the conference. ASK has invited about 10 other experts in invitation to come to the conference. Edgar J. Edgard He also said state senators Wint Winter Jr., R-Lawrence, and Jan Meyers, R-Overland Park, had confirmed plans to attend the conference. Former Kansas Gov. Robert Bennett has been invited to be the moderator of the conference. Bennett will speak at the invitation. Edmonsdor said. Students request bus service to West Campus By the Kansan Staff Eight students who attend classes and work on West Campus last night told the Student Senate Transportation Committee that a bus thought bus was needed in that. The committee, which has been studying the possibility of starting bus service to the area by next semester, is preparing a proposal. Co. on the feasibility of the proposal. The students said they had distributed petitions in favor of the proposed service at all the buildings on West Campus. They also said they had received about 200 favorable responses on the proposal. Richard Moore, professor of electrical engineering, told the committee that about 70 electrical engineering students next semester would be using microwave laboratories at Nichols Hall. Students could also consider bus service to West Campus. Kevin Neal, Senate transportation coordinator, told the committee that the University had asked the Senate to pay part of the salary costs for dispatching KU buses for handicapped and injured students.
