COMP 380-003 Computers & Society Spring 2008

SAFETY and WEATHER

Safety. The Campus Security Committee reminds those of us who attend classes, meetings, and other campus activities (such as using campus labs) in the evening to be conscious of their personal safety when traveling to and from those activities. You are strongly encouraged to follow their helpful:

Don't walk alone at night. Use the buddy system. Walk in well-lit areas of campus
Immediately report any and all suspicious activity to law enforcement by calling 9-1-1. Remember that 9-1-1 is not only for emergencies. If you do not have a cell phone, use the call boxes located across campus.
Use UNC's Point-to-Point express service, free to students, operating between 7 p.m. and 3 a.m. nightly.
After 3 a.m. use UNC's free Point-to-Point demand service by calling 962-7867 (962-P-TO-P) and providing your UNC personal identification number. The service is available at night to UNC students, faculty and staff at locations not served by the P2P Express Route or after normal P2P Express service hours.
Use Chapel Hill Transit, free to all passengers. Web site: www.chtransit.org Use the free Safe Ride Program, serving parts of campus, Chapel Hill, and Carrboro from 11:15 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Web site: www.unc.edu/saferide.

For more information, visit UNC's Public Safety home page.

Weather. In case of inclement weather, classes will be canceled if all classes during that time slot are canceled by the University. Any other cancellation would be determined only by the course instructor. Should that be necessary, she will notify the Computer Science receptionist (phone: 962-1700) at Sitterson Hall, who will then post a notice at his or her station (level 1 lobby) and on the classroom doors. In addition, if we have power, I will send an e-mail message to the class mail list.
