Walk sheds light on safety
By Erin Schulte
Staff Reporter
Taking a midnight stroll on cam
pus will be a little safer after
Thursday’s Campus Safety Walk.
The Campus Safety Committee,
Parking Advisory Committee and
Police Advisory Committee sponsor
the walk twice a year to identify
safety problems on City and East
campuses, said Joan Konccky, chair
woman ofthe Parking Advisory Com
mittee.
Common problems on campus
usually are nothing more than burnt
out lights and overgrown shrubbery,
Konecky said. For example, the walk
ers discovered that several parking
lots, especially commuter lots, had
broken light bulbs.
Twenty-eight people attended this
semester’s walk. Most were faculty
members on the three committees,
but interested students also showed
up.
“I do feel safe, but you can always
feel safer,” said Jen Moore, a sopho
more English major.
Erin Nielsen, an undeclared sopho
more and Neihardt student assistant,
said she planned the walk as a floor
program. Nielsen said she received
information on the walk in her bigred
e-mail account, as did all students
with bigred accounts.
“If it’s not too late at night,
there’s plenty of activity on cam
pus, but I still recommend the Cam
pus Escort Service to my floor,”
Nielsen said.
Members of the Campus Escort
Service also went on the walk, and
some wrote down problem areas they
saw along the way.
“Everything should be translucent
with halogen lamps,” joked Michael
Valerien, a senior philosophy and
psychology major and campus es
cort.
Problems discovered on the walk
should be fixed in a few days, Konecky
said, but more expensive problems
would have to be approved through the
chancellor’s office. Unsafe areas will
be brought to the attention of the land
scaping and maintenance offices.
The spring walk will be at 3 a.m.,
when lights from the baseball field and
buildings are shut off, to see how cam
pus is affected by different lighting,
Konecky said.

Pass/No Pass ends today
By Tasha E. Kelter_
Staff Reporter
Today is the last day for a stu
dent to change a class to Pass/No
Pass.
All transactions must be made
by 6:30 this evening, when NRoll
closes.
Pass/No Pass allows students to
pass the class by getting a C or
better.
If they get anything below a C,
they do not pass the class; how
ever, neither mark has any effect
on the student’s grade point aver
age.
. The only exceptions to the dead
line are “extreme circumstances”
such as a death in the family, said
an Office of Registration and
Records spokeswoman.
If students without such cir
cumstances want to change a class
to Pass/No Pass after this evening,
they must appeal to the Academic
Senate grading committee.
To change a class to Pass/No
Pass today, a student should call
NRoll at 472-7272 and select trans
action code No. 6.
Students who have lost their
four-digit personal identification
numbers, which are required for
any NRoll transaction, may call
472-3626.
Now that you have your computer account on BIGRED, you can
discover how to tap into the resources available to you on the internet.
These classes are free and no reservations are required. Seats are
available on a first come, first served basis. Call 472-9050 if you
