Campus Safety and Disability Services have teamed up to provide an enhanced safety escort program this academic year. Starting in August, 2009 the (“Lynx Cart”) will be available to those community members needing mobility assistance on or around campus, or for those people who do not want to walk alone.
The program is primarily staffed by student workers who will be equipped with a Campus Safety radio and a cart to transport those needing a ride. In addition to the student in the cart being out seeking those in need of a ride from distant parking lots, Safety Escorts can be dispatched to locations by calling Campus Safety at 901-843-3880.
The Safety Escort will be dispatched immediately. If the cart is not being staffed by a student an officer will be dispatched if at all possible.
