How is Ms. Bowman feeling now that she is back?
She’s slowly getting back to her old self. What we did find out when she was gone was that it takes a unique individual to run that attendance office. It is a very stressful job.
Do you have an update about the parking lot?
As always it has sold out. They haven’t started towing yet, but pretty soon we’ll have that going.
What about off-campus parking?
I want students to be mindful of their surroundings and I suggest they stick together when going off campus. In the afternoons and evenings especially. Students can call the security hotline at 354-3608 anytime with any concerns.
Have there been any major security issues so far this year?
We’ve done pretty well. There have been no major issues, only a few small things. But, just because we haven’t had something doesn’t mean it can’t happen. We will be practicing different crises situations in the next few months
Just the other day, I went over to VCU and met with the director of the Siegel Center. VCU has agreed to let us use this facility during a crisis. He showed me all the safe areas, the showers, and all that we might need.
Any thoughts for the diversity consultants?
I think we all get along real well at this school. For the most part, people respect each other and each other’s diversity. I hope they see that.
Anything else?
I would just like to thank all the teachers that support our security department. Teachers like Ms. Losen and all the teachers on the third floor whose windows face the student parking lot… they all always keep an eye open for me.
