Editor’s Note: This story has been updated to reflect a new day for the follow-up. It will be Nov. 16.

 

A follow-up University Safety Walk will take place at 5 p.m. Monday, Nov. 16, in front of Old Main to see if the issues brought up in the last safety walk were addressed properly.

The annual University Safety Walk was an event that took place on Monday, Oct. 12 and was meant to identify issues and areas that students felt were unsafe.

These safety issues included broken light bulbs and damaged sidewalks.

Ariannah Lambert, the chair of the student government university enhancement committee, said the reason for a follow-up is to see if the issues were actually fixed.

“Especially since all of the safety issues have occurred on campus,” Lambert said.

At the follow-up, volunteers will split up into groups in order to get more ground covered, Lambert said.
