Dear MSE Personnel,

At the April 2 MSE Safety Committee Meeting, we discussed a variety of privacy and ethical concerns related to surveillance camera use and oversight in our MSE workspaces, including many issues raised by current graduate and undergraduate students who work in our lab spaces. Based on this discussion, the attached MSE Camera Policy was created by Casey and I and approved by the MSE Safety Committee and Prof. Bahr. This policy is effective now and into the future.  If you have any questions, please talk to me or Casey.

Thanks,

Prof. Erk
