An overview of the
West End complex
On virtually every campus, somewhere
there sits a long bookshelf holding
large notebooks bursting with survey
results that represent assessment data
pertaining to student satisfaction with
residence hall staff, programming,
room and floor environment, facilities,
services, etc. Somewhere buried in
that data are also answers to a critical
question: How safe do students feel
on their campuses? The question is an
important one; as Maslow explained in
his theory of the hierarchy of human
needs, the need for safety must be
fulfilled before other needs - for social
connection or self-actualization - can
be met.

Campus reports are full of data
about thefts and assaults, which provide
some information about campus
security, at least in terms of the number
and frequency of crimes committed on
campus during a particular timeframe.
But is it possible to actually measure
how safe students feel on campus? If
so, how can the information gathered
from that assessment be put to use as
part of the decision-making process for
campus housing operations? Higher
education institutions have a certain
level of responsibility for student safety
both on and off campus and thus take
the necessary measures to ensure it.
However, no matter how many statistics
are collected, they're not enough to
provide a clear picture of whether or
not students actually feel safe. For this,
student input is critical.
This is the kind of data that East
Carolina University in Greenville, North
Carolina, used to make informed, datadriven decisions about student safety.
Student input had already informed
many of the Campus Living office's
decisions about dining hall menus,
modifications to off-campus housing
options, the selection and training
crisis Management:
Evaluation and planning:
Conduct audit to identify
potential risks.
Conduct assessment instruments; develop
implications for action plans based on findings.
