5/03/24 Encampment Activity Update

Facilities Update:

As the encampment begun earlier this week continues, we wanted to update you, as our facilities managers, of what to expect and how to access assistance when needed.

The University of Oregon goes to great lengths to support a safe working and educational environment for its students, faculty, and staff. The University has policies, and best practices for events to create and sustain a safe environment for the campus community.  We are meeting with the students involved in the encampment and have shared the policies and expectations. They have also been notified of the policies that have been violated.

Please note the following relevant information:

  • Safety & Risk Services (SRS) staff will be checking buildings through the weekend for graffiti or other damage. Next week, during normal business hours, please keep an eye out for vandalism, graffiti, or other things that seem out of place and report that as soon as possible to UOPD: 541-346-2919.
  • Building schedules may be changed for campus safety and security. Some are closing early and/or limiting access. If you choose to do so, notify uoem@uoregon.edu of your plans.
  • Should there be a large change to campus operations, class schedules, or other unforeseen event, we will notify the university community via the emergency notification system and through UO Alerts. This information may come as a text message in a true emergency, or email for general notification.

In an emergency, call 9-1-1. To report a criminal concern, contact UO Police Department at 541-346-2919.
