Forwarding on behalf of MSE Head and Professor, David Bahr: ________________________________ Everyone, With reduced on campus presence of many individuals our spaces are, to be blunt, emptier than normal. Recently the Purdue police had to escort a man off campus who was harassing a female employee in ARMS two days in a row. He was no affiliation to Purdue, our understanding is that he’d wandered in and was a problem. With ARMS and other buildings being open to the public 24/7, we never know who is in the building, and cameras can only help so much. This is especially concerning when many people are working remotely, and there are many times where only a few people are around. Everyone should be careful, aware of your surroundings, and don’t hesitate to call someone if needed. As they say, if you see something, say something. As a reminder, if you need help and don’t have your cell, there are emergency phones stationed throughout the halls. And if you see suspicious behavior (someone trying doors, peeking in widows, etc) please report it to the police. If you want to also let Lisa or Dave know to circulate to the department please feel free. Non-emergency reporting can be done via email (ehps@purdue.edu<mailto:ehps@purdue.edu>) or Phone: (765) 494-8221 If you see someone in an at risk situation, you can always call 911 which directly contacts the Purdue Police.
