Background

Scope and content:

This addition to RG 23/109, Student Organizations/ Z Society, includes a letter circulated and posted all over Grounds by the Z Society after an incident on February 28, 2022. The incident required a shelter-in-place notification to the community after officers initially responded to a report of a possible robbery with a weapon. Once on the scene, investigators learned the suspect had fled on foot but was located soon after in a construction zone behind the Main Library. The Z Society letter acknowledged the stressfulness of the situation and provided a list of local and national hotlines for services.
