Friends,

The weather played havoc last week when we had our winter meeting scheduled. As a result, the meeting has been re-scheduled for Tuesday March 2nd at Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois. Dave Baer had such a good experience hosting the last meeting; he volunteered to be our host again. The meeting will be held in room 203 of the Student Center. The meeting will begin at 10:00 A.M.

Our program for this meeting will be lead by Jim Bondi. We all have to use local law enforcement and emergency response agencies when we have a critical situation on our campuses. Unfortunately, most of these responders are not familiar with our building floor plans or lay-out of offices and rely on assistance from the campus Police or Security Agency. The next step in development of technology is to allow those responding agencies to be able call up floor plans and even specific pictures of our campuses using computers at the Police Department or on lap top computers in squad cars. Jim has a program to share with us on how this can be accomplished.

I have been working with a small committee to review and update our by-laws. We will present proposed changes at the meeting.

There will also be information about campus police and security departments obtaining PPE for WMD. This is interesting and important information.

If you plan on attending, please RSVP Dave at (303)-677-2922 or e-mail at dab@bradley.edu
 

Sincerely,
