Personal Safety Committee

The SUNY Downstate Personal Safety Committee was created in early 1986 in response to the Chancellor’s directive to campus presidents to continuously monitor campus personal safety activities and policies.

In 1989, the scope of the Committee was revised and expanded to include sexual assault prevention.

The Committee is charged with searching for creative and educational ways to enhance personal safety through academic and student life programming.

The Committee also makes recommendations to the Department of Facilities Management & Development and University Police to make enhancements to the campus designed to improve personal safety.

Membership of the Personal Safety Committee consists of faculty, staff, and students from the four colleges at SUNY Downstate. To participate in this committee, please contact your student council officers.
