Campus Safety continued the Officer/Residence Hall Liaison Program, in which each officer is assigned a residential area of responsibility for outreach through community-based, non-enforcement interactions. They were also expected to get to know all the resident assistants in their area and serve as a resource to them. There was a continuation of Cook-out with Campo, which was attended by approximately 700 students, giving students an opportunity to get to know Campus Safety officers and invited guests from Westminster Police Department in a positive, casual, non-enforcement atmosphere.
NEW ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
In collaboration with the Student Government Association, Campus Safety organized a self-defense class for students. The class was conducted by several Campus Safety officers who are certified self-defense instructors. Beyond campus, Chief Eric Immler participated as a member of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce Public Safety Awards planning committee. This county-wide program recognizes all departments and levels of public safety, including police, fire, EMS, campus safety, and prosecutors for outstanding work within their respective communities.
