Identify Activity That Will Require
Augmentation in FY 2001-02

COMMUNITY SERVICES OFFICER PROGRAM

The Community Services Officer (CSO) program has been in operation for six years. The program has never received funding from the University and is paid for by contributions from Parking and minimal support from the Associated Students with the majority coming from University Police funds. Salary savings and operating expense dollars fund the Department share.

CSOs provide services to the campus community Monday through Saturday, with the heaviest concentration of activities falling in the evenings, Monday through Thursday.

This is a highly visible and successful program that brings greater safety to the campus and is heavily utilized by the students. CSOs:

  • Provide 30,000 safety escorts each year
  • Assist in building security by ensuring buildings are locked at night· Perform lighting and emergency phone checks ensuring quick reporting of problems
  • Are used to provide LiveScan computerized fingerprinting services to approximately 8,500 people annually
  • Assist the campus during emergency situations – currently during the energy crisis they go through all buildings and turn off lights in unoccupied areas, and
  • Are assigned to monitor potentially disruptive behavior in classrooms.

Various campus operations, including the Library and student computer labs, have extended their service hours to serve students more fully. These extensions have required the CSOs to extend their coverage hours also, decreasing their availability to provide timely escorts and other services. The extended hours have stretched this program beyond its original design. We are now unable to provide the level of coverage for the campus that is required.

This proposal will allow us to add six additional CSOs to provide security escorts Monday through Thursday. This is an exceptionally cost-effective program, averaging $8 per hour per CSO, as opposed to an average $22.50 per hour for a police officer. Due to the previously cited reasons, the resources for this program have been stretched beyond their ability to cover all services
