As part of our commitment to campus safety, we want to ensure all personal transportation devices, including bicycles, skateboards, and e-mobility devices, are used responsibly. All devices must be operated respectfully on roads and sidewalks only, with operators yielding to pedestrians and using courteous communication when approaching. For everyone’s safety, all devices may not be ridden inside campus buildings, and riders should keep wheels on the ground at all times.
For those using e-mobility devices, university policy supports their safe and respectful use around campus. E-mobility devices, such as e-scooters, e-bikes, and hoverboards, should be ridden at slower speeds, especially in pedestrian-heavy areas. Devices must not block fire exits, stairways, or emergency access areas and should be parked only at designated bike racks. Remember, helmets and other safety gear are highly recommended. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in keeping our campus safe and accessible for all!

Tomorrow (Friday), cement trucks will be arriving on campus as early as 7 a.m. to start pouring cement at the cinematic arts/art building site next to the Klages Center. There will be times when you shall not pass the cement truck, as it’ll be blocking Carlton Way across from Weesner Village.
What can a ghoul do? You may have to wait 20 minutes in order to move when the cement truck is leaving, but if there’s another cement truck in the queue ready to go, that window will not open and you’ll have to continue waiting (we’ve all “been there, done bat”).
If you’d rather avoid all of the hullaba-boo, we’ll treat you right at the Morse parking lot. Or, if you’ve got another thing pumpkin and don’t plan on leaving for the day, stay put!
The cement trucks will be circling (“what ghost around comes around”) until about 1 p.m. tomorrow. Thank you for your patience! We appreciate you reading the announcement. It’s been a scream.
