We attempt to recruit a diverse team of volunteer auditors so that all concerns of the Queen s community are identified and addressed. We want the perspective of people who live and work in particular buildings, as well as individuals who do not, or who may merely have to pass through the facility from time to time. Security audits examine the physical security of the campus. They consider lighting, signage, lines of sight, traffic levels, potential entrapment sites, facility maintenance, emergency services such as blue light phones and accessibility. Deficiencies in any of these areas are noted, recommendations for corrective action are made and the final report, once approved by the Queen s Security Advisory Council, is passed to the appropriate authorities for action.
Auditors work in pairs, under the direction of a team leader.
Our security surveys tell us that almost all members of the Queen s community feel safe on campus during the daytime, therefore we conduct the audits after dark when concern for personal security is most pronounced. The next security audit will take place between March 12 and 23. Individual audit times will be scheduled based on the availability of the volunteers. January 30 Journal, the Kingston Police have arrested two 24 year old individuals in connection with the rash of Break and Enters in the Student Village over the Holiday break. The suspects are not members of the Queen's community.
