    NEWSLETTER INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF CHEMICAL ECOLOGY Volume 21, Number 2, July 2004 IN THIS ISSUE ● Secretary/Editor's Message ● Update on the 2004 Joint Meeting of ISCE and PSNA, Canada July 24-28, 2004 ● ISCE Elections Results The ISCE Newsletter is published triannually, normally in October, February, and June. It is financed through member contributions. None of the material contained herein may be reprinted without the proper written acknowledgment of the editor. Address all correspondence and newsletter submissions to the editor (Stephen Foster, [email protected]). Deadline for the next issue is September 15, 2004. Secretary/Editor's Message There are barely three weeks left before the annual meeting in Ottawa, Canada. An update on the symposia speakers at the meeting is given below. For more complete and updated information on the meeting refer to: http://www.isce-psna2004ottawa.ca/. With the exceptional two-year hiatus this time between annual meetings, Ottawa will be an excellent opportunity for Society members to consider how the society provides a forum for chemical ecologists worldwide to exchange ideas amongst themselves, as well as consider how the Society can improve the facilitation of this through various modes, including annual meetings, this newsletter and website, keeping in mind the limited resources of the Society. To this purpose, I encourage members to contribute to the Society actively by expressing any ideas or constructive criticisms they have to the Executive and Council members. Those of you who will be attending the meeting can do this at the Business Meeting. However, I encourage those members who are unable to attend this year’s meeting to email me any suggestions, etc they have and I will table them at the Executive Council meeting in Ottawa.

  • OVERVIEW of SECURITY SERVICES Overall Mission

    OVERVIEW of SECURITY SERVICES Overall Mission

    ADDENDUM TO PRESIDENT’S REPORT TO McMASTER UNIVERSITY’S BOARD OF GOVERNORS: OVERVIEW OF SECURITY SERVICES Overall Mission The mission of McMaster University Security Services is to create a safe and secure place to live, work, study and conduct research, and to protect lives and property. The Department is committed to a community-based approach, which promotes shared responsibility for preserving peace, preventing crime and enhancing community safety. As Board Members know, the University is a large campus, with roughly 300 acres of property and over 60 buildings, including over 4,200 residence spaces for students living on campus. On a typical day in a regular academic year there are upwards of 30,000 people on our main campus. Security Services patrols campus and campus facilities and offers education, training and support to all students, faculty and staff, in addition to visitors. Security Services is the first response system for campus, providing help when first aid is needed, supporting students who are at risk, creating safety plans for anyone on campus whose personal safety is at risk, acting as the first responder for any fire alarms, and protecting the security of campus facilities and property. McMaster’s Security Services call centre also acts as a 9-1-1 system for campus. Priorities The Department articulates three key priorities: 1. Preventing Violence, Sexual Violence and Violence Against Women on Campus – in undertaking this work, Security Services works closely with the Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office, the Student Wellness Centre and Human Resources Services; 2. Providing Mental Health and Wellness Support to Students, Faculty and Staff – Security Services provides a 24/7 service as first responder, which involves responding to calls and providing support, education, referral to services, and other actions as needed.
