Student senate to host Safety Day

Student Senate’s Safety Committee is gearing up for its annual Safety Day event. The event is a way for the Safety Committee to teach students about safety issues on campus. These issues range from drinking to sexual health, all promoting the committee’s mission to ensure the safety of students.

Safety Day will be held Thursday April 8 in the Quad from 2:30-6 p.m. Kelly Mathiesen, Safety Committee chair, is excited to promote this event. “We are holding interactive events such as drunk goggle obstacle courses and condom races to get the students involved,” Mathiesen said.

In addition to these interactive events, other organizations will be promoting awareness with prizes and giveaways that remind students to be safe on campus.

Mathiesen said, “Students should come to this event because it’s a great opportunity to interact with different organizations while learning about safety.”

The Safety Committee works around the year to promote safety awareness. “The committee does this by addressing the concerns of students,” Mathiesen said. The committee also “works closely with the MUPD and Millersville Fire Department,” she said.

Mathiesen and the entire Safety Committee invites all students to come out and be informed about how to be safe on campus. More information can be found on the Facebook page for this event.
